AVFKW x Romi Hill - Swoop Shawl Bundle

Kristine just completed Swoop by Romi Hill using Floating in the colorway Josephine and Michelle and Frond in the (new) colorway Meringue. So incredibly light and ethereal, this piece is gorgeous and very fun to knit - each time a little pop of color appears it's like a little bump of serotonin - like seeing a field of flowers. There are four colorful options - two of which include our new Summer Solstice 2022 colorway: Sun Day!

Cast on along the left edge, this striped shawl forms a wing shape by building one wedge upon another. Lace inserts are written so that you never have to break yarn or carry a long piece of your second color along the edge. Magic! The shawl is bound off with a reverse stockinette stitch i-cord which provides a strong edge while blending in perfectly to the garter stitch of the shawl. Overall, Swoop is a fantastically relaxing knit! - Romi Hill

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.
