Renew, Daybreak & Arise by Britt-Marie Brehmer
Shibui Yarns in new colorways Canary, Lotus & Pacific
Whether you are planning to staycation, venture out or a combination of the two, a new knit is the perfect feel-good addition. The new Shibui Spring Collection features 5 new happy colorways that are sure to help brush off the last remaining bits of winter. Designed by Britt-Marie Brehmer, the patterns are straightforward to knit & ever so wearable.
Each pattern is a single Shibui yarn or a lovely combination of yarns held together to create a luxurious fabric. We love how the yarns combine to make the simplest of stitch patterns shine.
Renew is a light summery wrap with just the right amount of drape. It may be knit in soft, light Pebble; a blend of recycled silk, wool & cashmere or knit a crisper version in cool Twig; a blend of linen, recycled silk & wool. The Renew pattern is free with the purchase of 6 skeins Twig or Pebble.
