Scout Shawl Kit
Designed by Florence Spurling
We absolutely fell head-over-heels for this, isn't it amazing? We are so happy to offer you a kit to knit this extraordinary shawl designed with Madelinetosh Merino Light in 5 complementary colours.
This kit was made with Florence, using almost all of the original colours and Madelinetosh yarn used in her design. We have only substituted one colour, 'Pink Clay', which is a pretty great match for the original. It's absolutely stunning.
We also offer a mini version of this kit for a smaller kerchief, featuring slightly different colours. They're super cute!
Our kit does not include the pattern.
The pattern is available through shopflorencespurling.com or Ravelry
We've kitted it up for you so you do not have to purchase 5 full skeins of yarn to make this beauty!
Scout is an intricate, pattern-filled shawl inspired by the pieced-together aesthetic of vintage quilts.
A dream project for colourwork lovers, Scout’s patchwork effect is achieved by mixing Fair Isle and intarsia knitting throughout. Knitted sideways from tip-to-tip, the easy-to-wear shape and size of the shawl is designed to display maximum detail as it drapes over the shoulders.
The Kit includes all the yarn you'll need to knit the shawl and a Loop cotton bag!
Madelinetosh Tosh Merino Light. 384m/420yds is the original yarn used in the design.
