The Twig Shawl is designed by Tin Can Knits. Please note that the kit does not include the pattern. You can purchase the pattern on their website.

We just love everything that our friends Emily and Alexa of Tin Can Knits are doing and are thrilled to bits that they chose our Knit by Numbers DK for their latest design, the Twig Shawl!

The Twig Shawl is a cosy, triangular shawl; perfect for throwing on over any outerwear, be it a fancy coat or a down-to-earth rain jacket. It's chock full of texture which means lots of interesting knitting while still being intuitive enough that it's a great companion for those long hours of can't-stop-watching TV (not just us, right??) We adore that deep rib and the mix between garter lines and broken rib sections! 

Emily chose a light copper shade, KBN121, and while we certainly love it in that – it just shows off that texture so well! – we just had to add a few more colours to choose from as it would look good in so many! The shawl comes in two sizes; one shawlette or child size, and one full triangle or adult size. Pictured is the adult shawl size.

Yarn Characteristics

Knit by Numbers DK: Knit by Numbers is inspired by the much-loved paint-by-numbers kits of our childhoods. With a colour palette of over 100 different shades it’s created by blending pre-dyed fibre tops with specific percentages of white, resulting in six tonal gradient shades per colour. The blend of Bluefaced Leicester and Merino is next-to-the-skin soft with great stitch definition and just the right amount of shine.

50% Bluefaced Leicester / 50% Falklands Merino

233m per 100g | 58m per 25g minis

Care Instructions

We recommend that our yarns are gently washed before use as we don't do any washing or conditioning after the yarns are spun and skeined. You'll be amazed by how much the fibre blooms after a soak and it will certainly help you get a more accurate feel for gauge and character of the yarn over time.

If using hand dyed yarn then this step is not necessary, but you may wish to stripe your skeins for colour consistency.

Once your piece is finished, we recommend another hand wash before wet blocking the piece to the given dimensions. This will set all your stitches and guarantee that your garment looks its best.
