On Our Needles: Beth’s Cinnabar Shawl

From our yarnista Beth, who is currently working on this shawl:

I love simple brioche – to me, it’s the perfect stitch to show off the subtle color changes of Dyed in the Wool. Although this shawl looks complicated, once you get going, the knitting is repetitive and intuitive – exactly what I need to relax into a project at the end of the day. de re rum natura Ulysse is one of my favorite all-purpose yarns, so I knew it would be a great choice for the solid MC. I’m loving my shawl already – it’s engaging enough to keep me interested, but easy enough to pick up and put down. Is it wrong to already be planning a second color combo?

Beth is using Spincycle Dyed in the Wool in Pick Your Poison and de rerum natura Ulysse in L’heure bleue
