Counting Stars Shawl

The Counting Stars Shawl is an asymmetrical triangular shawl, 78” / 198 cm wingspan and 32” / 81.5 cm depth. It is knit with Tanis Fibre Arts Highland DK (non-superwash) hand-dyed yarn in the colour Retro, and embroidered with hand-dyed organic merino is four different colours. 

This is the sample I knit when designing this shawl, it's light, airy, and still warm. Due to the nature of the non-superwash yarn it's not as soft as merino would be, but still next to skin soft (in my opinion). Hand wash, lay flat to dry.

Half Timbered Throw

The Half Timbered Throw is knit with DK yarn and is approx. 44” (112 cm) wide and 55” (140 cm) long. The yarn is Berroco Vintage DK so it's technically machine-washable, but I recommend washing by hand and laying flat to dry. It's super soft and warm, great size for a reading blanket. 

This is the sample I knit when designing the Half Timbered Throw.
