Grevillea Shawl by Ambah O'Brien / Koigu Kit

Ambah - Gorgeous Grevilleas, a flower native to Australia, come in a wide array of colours. When I was choosing a colour palette for this design, I found myself drawn to light to dark pinky-reds. The airy lace pattern and range of colours remind me of the spiky, loopy flowers of these beautiful bush flowers. The Grevillea Shawl was designed to feature the ten colours of a Koigu Pencil box mini-skein set, teamed with a main colour. Alternately this will knit up beautifully in a single colour: solid, speckle or gradient. An airy, asymmetrical triangle, this shawl will be fun to knit and lovely to wear all year round.

The pattern includes both written and charted instructions to choose between. (Not included in the KIT)

Kits include a 10 mini skein Pencil Box and two 50g skeins of main colour. Shown above is the Grevillia Shawl Kit - Original.
