$70

Mariella is the ideal summer sweater, with its slightly
cropped body, elbow-length sleeves, a gentle A-line shape,
and shawl collar. Mariella is worked in an open, drape-y
gauge that makes it a quick knit. It’s a versatile cover-up for
summer months. Wear it over a faded t-shirt and a pair of
cut-offs, or with a crisp linen sundress—it’ll add the perfect
amount of coziness and style to any outfit.

Linientreu Shawl
Saturdays 8/20, 8/27, 9/10, 9/17, 10am – 12pm
$50‘Linientreu’ was designed with the intention to find an alternative way to use yarns with short gradients (I can never resist to buy those!) without getting too many horizontal stripes.

‘Linientreu’ (‘In Line’) is a semicircular shawl, alternating equilateral triangles and simple garter stitch rows. The triangle modules are joined by knitting (no sewing necessary!) The right triangles at the border edge result from short rows.

You can use any yarn with short gradients.
