Loop Elliott & May Naturally Dyed Tiny Tassels Kit

A very special version of our tiny tassels kit knit with Elliott & May naturally dyed Bamboo + Linen blend.

This is the sweetest pattern that is fun and very easy to make. It is a triangle shawlette shape with rows of very tiny tassels going along the two side edges. The colours are beautiful and the result is a sweet and fun shawlette that's easy to wear any time of year. 
Pattern designed by Karin Fernandes for Loop.

Needle size recommended: 3.25 -3.5mm x 60 or 80cm circular . As the bamboo fibre adds a bit of slippiness to knitting, we also recommend using a good quality wooden needle such as the Clover Takumi Premium Circular Needles.
