A Knitting Triumph: The Aisling Shawl

Creative Year Knitting Yarn

I would love to have the time to knit up every single one of the yarns that I dye. Unfortunately, that is impossible, but I met the loveliest kindred spirit through my IG account and she is an incredibly talented test knitter.

When she offered to knit up my yarns for me in exchange for yarn it was like the heavens had opened and sent me my very own yarn angel. So, I chose two patterns and yarn for each project and shipped them off to her.
She dutifully sent me photos of the shawls progress while she worked on it which was nice. I loved seeing it at its different stages.
This week it arrived in the post, and I have to say I am in love! 
This is the Aisling Shawl by Justyna Lorkowska - here's the Ravelry Link - and it has been in my Ravelry queue for years!
The yarns I chose for this shawl were The Magic Faraway Tree for the main body of the shawl and Saucepan Man Makes A Muddle for the lace and contrast bits.
Both yarns are just beautiful, and I am so pleased to see them knitted up and that I get to wear this shawl this autumn to some of my shows. 
 
If you would like to purchase either of these yarns, then please do visit my shop.
Otherwise, if you are attending the Pop Up Wool Show in Port Sunlight in August you can grab a skein there and of course say hi which would be nice.
Hope to see you there!
