La Bien Aimée x Amy Christoffers - Pressed Flowers Shawl Bundle

Items marked preorder and ordered in late December, will be available approximately early February.

~~~

Our team member, Shawn, recently completed a Pressed Flowers Shawl and has been raving about knitting it and has also been wearing it constantly. We consider that a successful knit!

Though LBA Merino Singles are quite a bit thinner than Amy's original piece, thus making a smaller shawl, Shawn is very pleased with the result - as the finished piece wears more like a bandana - an accent to their outfit. It feels manageable and adds a pop of color. Shawn used Yellow Brick Road and Belle Epoque.

Shawn used the same needle size as Amy calls for in the pattern. They knit 4 repeats of the flower pattern. And completed the border as instructed. 

One of the things Shawn loves about their shawl, is that due to the nature of LBA's combination of ever so gentle speckles and gradations of colors within a single skein, each flower is unique as you knit. This little jog and jump makes it feel like taking a hike through a field of wild flowers on a Spring morning.

So we have put together 4 color options of bundles for this shawl - one skein each - that will mimic the patterning of color found in Shawn's shawl.  Of course, we had to put together one option featuring the new custom LBA x Verb colorway: Day by the Bay!
