WELCOME

I’m Shannon of Very Shannon - a Canadian knitwear design company that focuses on modern, mindful and relaxing knits. I hope that my designs find their way onto your needles and into your gorgeous handmade wardrobes and that they encourage you to slow down, take a breath and sink into the rewarding process of slow fashion.

Mindful making from my home to yours.

I'm so excited to finally be able to share that I recently got to design two patterns for the newest Berroco Portfolio - Volume 4! I designed a hat and cowl set called Cavilleri that was inspired by Ali McGraw's character from the iconic romance "Love Story".

Both pieces feature tons of texture and a fun to knit cable detail. The Cavilleri Hat can be worn with or without a pompom and has just the right amount of slouch. The cowl can be worn over the shoulders as shown or as a regular cowl too! They are the perfect knits to treat yourself or to make as a special gift for a loved one.

I hope you enjoy both of these pieces as well as the rest of the patterns from this gorgeous collection! I was beyond thrilled to be included and even more excited to have my Cavilleri Cowl be the back cover image! I know I'll be making a few of these for this fall/winter season!
