This edition is special: as part of Malabrigo’s 20th anniversary, Malabrigo decided to look into one of their classic patterns (and a favorite among knitters!) with a modern twist. Presenting, Barnstable by Lisa Hannes. A shawl that mixes contrasting colors in a beginner-friendly mosaic that will undoubtedly become a showpiece!
Read our blog post for more information about the Knit Along!
For the Knit Along you will need a total of 3 skeins: 2 in a Main Color and 1 in a Contrast Color.
We included pictures of colorways you can pick from or you can come up with your own!
Great for: Accessories, garments, baby and kids items, housewares, toys, cables, textured stitches, colorwork.
When we dye our yarns, the same formula is used each time but every batch of yarn may vary. The differences from one dye lot to another can be very subtle, or extremely noticeable, specially on variegated yarns. After our quality control team checks the skeins, they go to the labeling section and then are put in bags of five or ten (depending on the yarn). Once the bags get to the yarn stores, most skeins go to different shelves where they can get mixed.
The colors shown on photos are illustrated as reference, as mentioned above, they can differ on more or less of one tone, due to the hand-dyed process.
