This shawl is named for one of designer Ambah O'Brien's favorite native plants to grow and admire. Eremophila's flowers come in a beautiful range of colors, from golden to pink to purple, which are the colors she chose for her Eremophila Shawl sample. Worked top-down, the symmetrical triangle shape is easy to wear. Chevron patterning and eyelets make this a fun and satisfying project to knit and a dramatic finished result.
Note: The pattern provides instructions for both DK and fingering weight yarn, and the fingering weight version can be knit in a single color or with ten mini skeins.
This kit is for the fingering weight version and uses a set of ten mini skeins.
