Announcing an exciting Simply Shetland and Madelinetosh collaboration for Rhinebeck! Featuring Gudrun Johnston’s stunning new cowl pattern, Cloud Drift, and Madelinetosh Tosh Silk Cloud in Plivver: a limited-editing color dyed just for Simply Shetland to perfectly match the main color shade of Spindrift in Old Gold.
Construction: Inspired by Shetland hap shawls, the cowl is worked flat with yarn overs at the edges and then seamed to form the cowl. It features mosaic knitting, a fun colorwork technique without stranding, all on a garter stitch background.
Design Inspiration: The simple mosaic design creates a gradient effect reminiscent of Sashiko patterns, highlighting the beauty of Shetland yarn held with a Japanese milled yarn.
Each kit includes:
- 5 balls of Spindrift: 2 balls of the main color and 1 ball each of the three contrasting colors.
- 1 skein of Tosh Silk Cloud in Plivver: An exclusive color developed by Madelinetosh. Plivver is the Shetland term for the Golden Plover, a bird known for its earthy golden feathers.
- A golden Boxie bag by della Q.
- A postcard with a free pattern download for the cowl (pattern is exclusive to the kits for one month)
