Worked in a V-shape that drapes effortlessly, the design features Estonian braids, simple lace, and seed stitch. The interplay of structure and airy textures creates a shawl that feels both refined and organic. This knit is an invitation to linger in the moment and let your stitches echo the gentle rhythms of summer.

We are offering these two new colorways on two of our favorite yarns: Rumor and Nibble. Ksenia used Rumor for her version. Made of merino wool and silk, this yarn shows the stitch pattern beautifully due to the crispness of the silk and the bounce of the wool.
Nibble is for those of you who love to support California wool. Nibble is a 2-ply yarn made of soft fine wool and comes from sheep who live in Santa Barbara County and work with the local fire department to nibble and graze along the hillside to help with wildfire suppression. This is a yarn that helps the environment and is also beautiful and lovely to work with.

Pattern

CROCKING
When working with yarn dyed with indigo and with medium to dark shades of natural dyes (especially on slick fibers like mohair), it is common and natural for the dye to rub off on one’s hands while making. This is called crocking. Although the goods have been washed, it takes pressured contact to release the extra dye. Your handwork is part of the dyeing process. The dye can be removed with hot water and soap. From working closely with dyed materials through the making process, typically, the excess dye has been removed, and the crocking will cease.
~~~
ALWAYS use pH-neutral soap when blocking and washing natural dyes.
Please note the fiber content of the material you are working with, and follow the applicable instructions:
Cotton or linen - Machine washable on cool cycle. Lay flat to dry.
Superwash Wool - Machine washable on cool cycle, though hand wash recommended. Lay flat to dry.
Wool and Wool blends - Handwash only in lukewarm water. Lay flat to dry.
