New Design by Anniken Allis

20/8/2018

 
Picture
Delighted that Anniken Allis, probably the best known shawl designer in the UK, has created a shawl for Issue 127 of The Knitter magazine using one of our yarns.  This is Wentwood, made using 100g of our Blue Faced Leicester 4-ply in the Mystic Forest colourway.  I've just dyed a couple of skeins of this so it will be in the webstore in the next couple of days.

We do have other colourways available in this yarn, and the design could also be made with most of our other standard 4-plys (400m/100g), particularly the new BFL/Masham, Corriedale and Corriedale Mohair blends.



Picture
This is the second design by Anniken in The Knitter to feature one of our yarns.  The first was Perranporth, back in Issue 110, which used 100g of our British Alpaca Silk 4-ply.
