Crush Season by Melanie Berg
The Fibre Co. Herb & Hue, colors Tibetan Plateau, Khmer Spice, Venetian Terrace, Byzantium Velvet, Black Forest
Melanie Berg delights knitters again with her latest shawl design; Crush Season. This special shawl is knit in a new & exciting yarn by The Fibre Co.
Herb & Hue uses a special dyeing process that transforms herbs, tree bark & roots into self-fixing dyes that are 100% botanical. The dyes are environmentally-friendly & deliver deep, vibrant colors that are not traditionally found on naturally dyed yarns.
The plied, worsted weight is spun with 100% Extra Fine Merino wool. Beautiful & versatile, the yarn is ideal for hats, scarves, cowls, wraps & garments. A round twist delivers crisp stitch definition that accentuates textured stitches & cables. Herb & Hue has a lovely, soft hand for touchable pieces.
Colors & stitches dance across this asymmetrical, triangle shawl with an oversize chevron pattern. The palette of Herb & Hue has a cohesive color story, so you cannot go wrong with mixing & matching to create a combination that speaks to your personal style.
