Artus Shawl Kit

We have just made some more!

Designed by Natsja Hornby

We love this beautiful shawl so much we've put together a kit for you with all the yarn you'll need to create this stunning piece!

Artus is a rich tapestry of texture and colour. The mosaic border is easy to work, allowing for creative colour combinations that consistently produce fantastic results.
Artus is not a delicate, sheer layering piece; instead, it’s a substantial wrap with a distinct presence. It stands out and adds character to any outfit while keeping you warm and cozy. It’s both eye-catching and functional, a true statement piece.

CONSTRUCTION
Artus is a triangular shawl that is worked top-down from the center out, starting with a classic Garter Tab Cast On. The shawl features narrow bands of 1x1 color created using the stranded technique. The eye-catching border of the shawl is worked using the mosaic technique, holding only one strand of yarn on every row.

8 skeins of Lichen and Lace Rustic Heather Sport (400grams) and a beautiful Loop cotton project bag.  The pattern is NOT included but can be purchased through Natsja's Ravelry page.
