A Colorful Shawl to Knit for Spring

by

vibrance shawl knitting patternThings are turning green where I live and I couldn’t be happier about it. I want to see color everywhere, from spring flowers to my knitting needles.

The Vibrance Shawl pattern from AbbyeKnits is a great choice for knitting up this time of year. It uses a variety of speckled sock yarns, so it’s not too heavy for the warm weather to come.

It uses short rows for the shaping and is finished with a fun picot bind off.

The pattern is $7 Canadian, or about $5.35 in the states.

You can find it on Ravelry.

Brava Yarn Is 20% Off All September

 

Brava Yarn Is 20% Off All September

If you need soft, affordable yarn for a project that will actually be used and washed, Brava is worth adding to your list. This bestselling acrylic yarn is the Yarn of the Month and is currently 20% off throughout September, with no discount code required.

Brava is softer than many traditional acrylic yarns while still offering the durability and easy-care finish needed for everyday projects. It is a practical choice for baby blankets, children’s clothing, crochet toys, washable gifts, accessories and family-sized afghans.

One of Brava’s biggest attractions is its colour range. You can create bright rainbow projects, gentle nursery palettes, seasonal combinations or classic neutrals without spending a fortune. It is also available in four different yarn weights, making it suitable for everything from lightweight accessories to thick, cosy blankets.

This is what I would call a real workhorse yarn. It is comfortable to work with, available in plenty of colours and durable enough for projects that will receive a lot of love.

With Brava currently 20% off, September is a great time to test a new colour, plan a washable blanket or stock up for the projects already waiting in your queue.
