I'm so happy & excited to release the FEYRE shawl knitting pattern today! FEYRE was inspired by the main character Feyre, from the Court of Thorn and Roses Series by Sarah J. Maas, and is a crescent shaped shawl that embodies both the strength & softness, and the lightness & darkness that are always at play within Feyre. Relaxing to knit combinations of Stockinette stitch, Garter stitch and Slip Stitch Ribs combine to make a shawl filled with texture that's fabulous for showing off your new favorite marl, tonal or hand dyed yarn!
FEYRE was designed to allow the knitter to sub in different yarns in each section (or sub-section) and to truly customize their shawl! To help envision "your" Feyre we've included FREE bonus coloring pages with every PDF pattern!

YARN + COLOR CHOICES
I've got a soft spot for marl yarns. I love them. So when Brooklyn Tweed released their new marl colorways in Shelter a few months ago I fell head over heels in love. I knew a marled shawl needed to be made asap and FEYRE was born! I wanted a shawl that was worsted weight, pretty quick to knit with great drape, a generous size, and with multiple styling options.
I also wanted to play with texture, cause you know guys know how much I loooove texture...lol. The slipped stitch ribs in this pattern are fun to knit but also pop amongst the marl. The knit-on edging changes the stitch direction of the rib and I love how that plays against the movement of the rest of the shawl. All the sections with the marl are combos of stockinette and garter so you can go wild subbing in tonals, striping, solids - you name it! It was so fun to see all the fun combinations the testers came up with for Feyre!
I really love wearing Feyre in all the ways shown on the model. But my favorite way is with my new hand carved arrow shawl pin from E. C. Crafts! Isn't it lovely? So stunning! I think it goes perfectly with the inspiration behind Feyre and also the colorways. I'm definitely smitten with it!
