Cultivate - Rose Scarf Kit
In Cultivate, renowned artists Dee Hardwicke and Jonna Helin come together to celebrate the elegance of everyday simplicity through the art of knitting. This collection features 20 timeless patterns, blending Dee’s nature-inspired botanical scarves with Jonna’s effortlessly elegant garments designed to endure and inspire.
Dee and Jonna invite you to draw inspiration from the world around you, guiding you to create profoundly beautiful and refreshingly simple knitwear.
To help you get started, we’ve crafted a special kit for the stunning Rose Scarf. This design celebrates Swiss darning embroidery in a modern graphic rose motif. With easy-to-follow charts and all the yarn you’ll need, you’ll have the freedom to add your own creative touches.
Our kit includes La Bien Aimée Merino Singles for the main colours and Madelinetosh Merino Light for one of the contrasting shades in the original colourway, Hegelia. For our exclusive Loop-curated colours, we’ve chosen The Uncommon Thread BFL Singles for the main and contrast colours.
We’re excited to share the beauty and simplicity of the Rose Scarf with you, and we know you’ll love it as much as we do!
Join us for a FREE event with Dee and Jonna at Loop on November 23rd. They’ll showcase samples and demonstrate the Swiss darning technique featured in the patterns. Don’t miss it!
