- Pattern Details
Wrap yourself in the vibrant colors and patterns of the Afternoon in Lisbon Shawl, a design that embodies the lively spirit of Portugal's historic capital. This generously sized rectangular wrap features garter stripes and a stunning mosaic motif reminiscent of Lisbon’s iconic tiled facades. The kit utilizes the exquisite Malabrigo Mechita yarn, known for its softness and rich hues, to create an eye-catching color play that's simple yet sophisticated. Mosaic knitting, an approachable colorwork technique involving slipped stitches, allows you to work with one color at a time, ensuring the process is as enjoyable as wearing the final product. Inspired by the graphic mosaics found in Lisbon’s public spaces, this shawl is perfect for those who cherish a piece of artistic knitting.
Please note: The pattern and needles are not included in this bundle. The digital pattern can be purchased separately on Ravelry.
The kit is designed to fit one size as described in the pattern. In case you require a different size or color(s), you can purchase individual skeins of Mechita to customize your project accordingly.
