Textured Shawl Single Strand Version Kit

About Textured Shawl – Single Strand Version

A shawl that can be layered and draped around the neck and shoulders for luxurious warmth. This pattern has the option included to work up in two possible weight options. Use yarn held double to create a luxuriously warm fabric with all the lightness of our heavy lace weight yarn, Meadow, or knit with just one strand for a weightless feel. A meditative knitting experience for your making, this piece includes simple increases and decreases to create texture for an accessory with a graphic but soft feel.

The first wobbly scarf you knit and knotted proudly around your neck to keep out the cold. The handmade mittens you wore as a child, a gift from a beloved relative. When we think about the hours spent making those items, we understand that they are an act of love. It’s the time you set aside for your own creativity that day. It’s the way you felt as your beloved pulled on your hat as they left for work that day. Each stitch, a hidden wish.

The gift of handmade is at the core of our latest series of design collections. We named it ‘Foundations’ because these are the building blocks for a lifelong hobby in which we can clothe ourselves and our loved ones in beautiful colours and texture. The designs are simple, aimed at welcoming a novice knitter who has picked up needles and now wants to expand on what they’ve learned by creating something they can use. At The Fibre Co., we understand that these things take time and we want you to feel nothing but joy as you work with our yarn.

These Foundations patterns are also meant to inspire more advanced knitters with the overall shapes, textures and styling serving as a base to improvise and adapt to a personal aesthetic.
