For Dottie, I wanted to do something strong and graphic while keeping it whimsical and sweet. Large Brioche dots combined with smaller bobbles sprang to mind as soon as I held the yarn in my hands. While I’ve been combining Brioche and Garter stitch to create geometric shapes for some time (they are a perfect textural combination), this is my first time adding the Intarsia technique into the mix. This combination of stitch patterns and techniques gives the playful, variegated colorway Garden Dreams room to shine and provides a dramatic contrast with the rich colorway Winter Sunrise used for the Garter stitch body of the Dottie shawl.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e~~~\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDottie is knit with Annapurna, a super soft yarn made of Merino wool and cashmere, with a beautiful, smooth twist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFebruary is the last month of winter for us in Oakland. We watch the days slowly get longer and brighter as they unfurl from the height of Winter Solstice. We are now looking forward to our Spring garden filled with light, pops of color, and more warmth. To celebrate the sun’s return, we dyed for Susanne one full-sized coral skein called Winter Sunrise, and one variegated half-skein called Garden Dreams.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe yellow moment of Garden Dreams was created with weld, conjuring the yellow centers of flowers we grow for dye, which are the landing pads for pollinators like butterflies, bees, moths, and hummingbirds. The watercolor-like lavender and blush pink are created with logwood and madder, hinting to the passionfruit vines and to the climbing roses we will see on our redwood trellis, welcoming guests to our home. Each skein is lovingly prepared by hand with great attention to detail and composition. An homage to the care we give our garden to fulfill our Garden Dreams.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e~~~\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFINISHED MEASUREMENTS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLength: 66\" [168 cm]\u003cbr\u003eWidth: 13 1\/4\" [34 cm]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasurements taken after blocking.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHIS BUNDLE INCLUDES\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e+ Annapurna by A Verb for Keeping Warm, 80% Merino wool \/ 20% cashmere; 385 yd [352 m] per 112g skein; 1 skein in Winter Sunrise\u003cbr\u003e+ Annapurna by A Verb for Keeping Warm, 80% Merino wool \/ 20% cashmere; 171 yd [156 m] per 50g skein; 1 skein in Garden Dreams\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eADDITIONAL SUPPLIES NEEDED: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.averbforkeepingwarm.com\/collections\/tools\/knitting-needles\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKnitting Needles\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e+ US 4 (3.5 mm) circular needles\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.averbforkeepingwarm.com\/collections\/tools\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTools\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e+ Tapestry needle\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePATTERN \/\/ PLEASE NOTE:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis bundle does \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003en\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eot \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003einclude the pattern.\u003cspan\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.ravelry.com\/patterns\/library\/dottie-shawl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003ePlease \u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.ravelry.com\/patterns\/library\/dottie-shawl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eclick here to purchase the pattern directly from Susanne on Ravelry.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"A Verb for Keeping Warm","offers":[{"title":"Winter Sunrise + Garden Dreams","offer_id":46908384149679,"sku":null,"price":69.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0100\/6852\/files\/SOMMER_ANNAPURNA-9038_a0f3d0b5-03e5-41bd-b776-73bd6ea1dfb0.jpg?v=1778622902","url":"https:\/\/www.averbforkeepingwarm.com\/products\/avfkw-x-susanne-sommer-dottie-shawl-bundle","provider":"A Verb for Keeping Warm","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
