This yarn kit contains all the yarn you need to knit the stunning Dahlia shawl. The kit uses the yarn used to create the original shawl – using a combination of Fenella and Mist. Mist, a mohair/silk blend is knitted together with Fenella producing a beautifully soft and lightweight shawl. The final section of the shawl is knitted using Fenella only to create a delightfully draping edging to the shawl.
About the Dahlia Shawl: This stunning shawl is lightweight and not too large, so you can work on knitting it even on the hottest of days. Its delightful colour palette is inspired by glowing golden dahlias.
The shawl is constructed as a traditional triangular shawl beginning with just a few stitches gradually increasing to encompass the full pattern. The lace pattern is worked throughout, becoming familiar as the shawl progresses.
The shawl is knitted by holding together one strand of Fenella 100% wool with one strand of Mist, a gloriously soft and silky mohair and silk blend. The shades of Fenella change throughout the design and are each blended with Mist in turn creating a beautifully soft gentle transition from one shade to another.
