Mindfulness Shawl

Mindfulness Shawl is another wonderful collaboration with Kirsty and Simon from The Isle of Skye Natural Dyeing Company. Showcasing the beauty of Coara Sport/Dk Yarn hand-dyed using healing plants that grow on the Isle of Skye, Mindfulness is a simple asymmetrical Shawl. We hope that knitting this shawl will give you moments of complete calm, help you to focus on your feelings and become aware on the present moment and your thoughts. The shawl starts with just 3 stitches, flows in a regular rhythm of increase, and decrease stitches and is finished with a simple, yet very effective picot edge, almost like the beads of a Mala Necklace used in Meditation. Working these slow increases makes for a long, yet shallow shawl that is very easy to wear and style and we are sure the shawl will become a firm favourite in no time, and you will want to make many more in a variety of colours. Materials: Coara Sport/DK – 100% British Fibre 70% Blue Faced Leicester/30% Shetland 50g/166m For One Shawl you will need 2 hanks. 4mm Knitting Needle (Circular is recommended due to number of stitches)
