Avalon
Avalon is our newest shawl to wrap up and keep you covered in beautiful colors as you endure the current world. Avalon can be worn as a cross body shawl – tied in the back, or snuggled up around you – the shaping of it means it is very wearable!
Avalon uses 4 skeins of Noro Silk Garden and one skein of Ella Rae Superwash Classic, which are all included in the kit with a pattern download code! If you want to go off-script - feel free to experiment with other Noro Yarn - Ito, Kureyon, Taiyo, or even a Mad Ball!
Avalon is worked from both ends, toward the center and then joined with a three needle bind off. It is quick (size 9 needles!), gorgeous and keeps your interest!
The sample you see here uses color 489
