La Bien Aimée is happy to offer brand new bundles for the Traveler Shawl by Andrea Mowry!
Andrea Mowry has released a new pattern in her Traveler series: the Traveler shawl. Andrea knit it in her handspun yarn and reached out to the yarn brands she has collaborated with for her other Traveler patterns to see if they had ready-made yarn suggestions. La Bien Aimée was more than happy to jump in with our favorite yarns!
Alix and Kumo are an Alpaca match made in yarny heaven! They create a gorgeous fabric that is drapey and incredibly soft. We knit the small size, and the shawl is still generous and wraps comfortably around you.
Please note: There is only enough yarn to knit the first triangle with Kumo. We designed this bundle based on our version of the shawl. We held together Kumo and Alix for the first triangle, and then we used Alix held double for the second triangle. If you want to knit the entire shawl with Kumo, you will need to purchase an additional skein of Kumo.
For Aimée's version only: There is a mini Alix skein included for the fade and contrasting tip in Fluoro Morganite. However, if you do not want to knit the contrasting tip, the bundle contains enough Alix in Fiori to knit the whole shawl in size 1.
