Beckley Creek Shawl Kit (Yarn + Pattern)

This top down, knit triangle shaped shawl uses simple lace and introductory mosaic stitches to create waves and pebbles mimicking the creeks we played in as care free children. The best part? You don’t have to purl a stitch!

The Beckley Creek Shawl is a perfect opportunity to pair that hand painted variegated yarn that brings us such joy in the hank with a more tonal or solid yarn to ground the color changes. Be sure to use two yarns that are different in tone or depth of color to really make those pebbles pop.

This kit listing comes in two sizes: small (1 skein of each colourway) and large (two skeins of each colourway). You will have the choice from ANY catalogue colourways available; however, as stated above, to preserve the integrity of the design, choosing at least one semisolid is advised. All skeins will be dyed on our Snowflake Sock base - a sturdy 75% SW Merino/25% Nylon blend with amazing yardage (our most popular base).
