Description

Let’s rediscover the magic of plants in Winter

SIGN UP

Sign up by purchasing this Jardin d’Hiver Shawl starting November 1st.

SCHEDULE

Clue 1: Monday 27th of November
Clue 2: Monday 4th of December
Clue 3: Monday 11th of December
Clue 4: Monday 18th of December

SIZE

The size and shape of the shawl are part of the mystery.
It will be large enough to warp most knitters up well.

SUGGESTED YARN

Weight: DK or Sport or Heavy fingering with the same required gauge
Composition: We chose a blend of Linen and Cotton (95% Linen / 5% Cotton : Linaé from Natissea)
If you don’t want to use this yarn, I recommend a DK, sport or heavy fingering yarn containing a little of planted-based fiber or silk to achieve a certain drape.
Try to avoid any yarn containing too much halo (such as yarns containing a lot of mohair or alpaca, for example).

Meterage

Approximately 705 m in total

  • MC: 570 m
  • CC1: 60 m
  • CC2, CC2, CC3; 25 m

CC1 is a color in the same colorimetric range as MC (for example, dark and light green, beige and brown).

CC2, CC3 and CC3 are three other complementary colors.

Check on the pictures to see some suggestions for the color palette you need for this pattern. You’ll find kits here: Kit Jardin d’Hiver

NEEDLES AND NOTIONS

  • A pair of 3.5 mm circ. needles paire d’aig. circulaires 3,5 mm if you knit with the original yarn (plant-based fibers often requires smaller needles).
    If you choose an other yarn as animal-based fiber, use the appropriate needles to obtain the recommended gauge, otherwise the size of the shawl will be affected, as will the quantity of yarn required.
  • A 3.5 mm hook 3.5 mm
  • A tapestry needle

You’ll be able to take part in the event on Discord and/or Ravelry.
At the end of each week, a draw will take place. Prizes (all different) will be awarded on the basis of photos shared on the various Social Medias where the MKAL takes place.

SHARING ON SOCIAL MEDIAS
