Artus Shawl Kit PREORDER

This will be a PREORDER until the yarn arrives.  Kits should be with us around the 12th of December. Please remember to order anything else separately.  We are sorry but we cannot merge orders at this busy time of year. 

We have added a second drop for these beautiful kits. If you order from November 18th this second set of kits will be ready to be posted to you or picked up the 3rd or 4th week of December.

We love this beautiful shawl so much we've put together a kit for you with all the yarn you'll need to create this stunning piece!

Artus is a rich tapestry of texture and colour. The mosaic border is easy to work, allowing for creative colour combinations that consistently produce fantastic results.
Artus is not a delicate, sheer layering piece; instead, it’s a substantial wrap with a distinct presence. It stands out and adds character to any outfit while keeping you warm and cozy. It’s both eye-catching and functional, a true statement piece.

CONSTRUCTION
Artus is a triangular shawl that is worked top-down from the center out, starting with a classic Garter Tab Cast On. The shawl features narrow bands of 1x1 color created using the stranded technique. The eye-catching border of the shawl is worked using the mosaic technique, holding only one strand of yarn on every row. 

Kit includes:

8 skeins of Lichen and Lace Rustic Heather Sport (400grams) and a beautiful Loop cotton project bag.  The pattern is NOT included but can be purchased through Natsja's Ravelry page.
