AVFKW x La Bien Aimée x Cecelia Campochiaro - Reflected

“Reflected is a reversible shawl made of two mirrored parallelograms in a biased rib. The two parallelograms together make a form that resembles a pair of wings and drapes naturally over the body in a comforting way. The fabric is a mix of two lace-weight yarns from two different brands. When worked together they make a light and drapey fabric that feels wonderful. A contrasting color is added to make ephemeral marl stripes and is also used in the neckline to give the edge both physical and visual gravitas. The stitch pattern is easy—it’s a 2-row pattern—so both the process of making Reflected and wearing it should be joyful. In the spirit of mixing bases and encouraging creativity, the pattern can be easily adapted to other yarns and colors so each knitter can make their own unique version.”  - Cecilia

We love Cecilia's captivating and elegant designs, and we couldn't wait to put together our own sample of the Reflected shawl from Neons and Neutrals. With this shawl draped around your shoulders, you can't help but feel like you are wearing pure luxury.

Our version combines La Bien Aimée Helix with two Verb yarns, Shimmering Tussah and Rumor. Held together throughout, lofty Helix and the slightly toothy silk of Shimmering Tussah create a fabric that is textured but soft, with a gorgeous drape that is just heavy enough to sit perfectly over your shoulders. Merino and silk Rumor adds a glimmer of vibrant color in delicate stripes and a cleverly curled edging.

There are four colorways to choose from:
Mirage: Shimmering Tussah Starlight, Helix Quartz Fumé, Rumor Habanero
Deep Sea: Shimmering Tussah Indigo Blue Sky, Helix Isle of Aran, Rumor Sencha
Sun-dappled: Shimmering Tussah Red Pear, Helix Peach Sweater, Rumor Sundappled
Iron + Wine: Shimmering Zinc, Helix Lichen, Rumor Red Pear

When working with yarn dyed with indigo, it is common and natural for the blue dye to rub off on one’s hands while sewing. This is called crocking. Although the goods have been washed, it takes pressured contact to release the extra indigo dye. Your handwork is part of the indigo dyeing process. The blue dye can be removed with hot water and soap. From working closely with indigo dyed materials through the making process, typically, the excess dye has been removed, and the crocking will cease.
