PRE-ORDER : SHAWL KIT : Rising Dawn
PRE-ORDER : SHAWL KIT : Rising Dawn
This colourway has been re-launched and you can build your own two-skein kit here.
This listing is a pre-order: yarn will be dyed to order.
This kit contains two 115 g (4 oz) skeins for a total of approximately 740 m (810 yds), enough to knit Rising Dawn by Stephen West. More details can be found on this blog post.
The pattern is not included and can be purchased directly from Stephen West.
The shawl pictured was knit by using our classic weekend yarn, using slightly more than one 170 g skein. This kit will create a similar effect, but with a more generous yardage and your choice of the MCN or Merino Twist base yarn.
