A Really Good Yarn: Ambah’s Daily Pattern Sale Starts Next Week

Ambah has a new pattern.This is called the Cosmos Blossom Shawl and you can purchase it on Ravelry.

Knit yourself a gorgeous floral lace shawl.

Inspired by the beautiful crochet granny square garments I have been seeing everywhere, it occurred to me I could create a lace knit shawl joined together in a similar way.

A deep dive into creating the perfect lace square later and I became obsessed with all the possibilities this project lends itself to. The square block would also make a wonderful throw - as per the Radvent Throw.

There are so many options with this cosy piece. Choose between fingering or DK weight yarn and express yourself with a bold colourful patchwork piece, a neutral, muted shawl or try both, using a neutral and adding a bright pop of colour.

Perfect for stash diving, and the fingering weight squares will use up those 20-gram minis you’ve been collecting. Or treat yourself to some beautiful new yarn and knit yourself a piece to treasure.

Pattern includes both charted and written instructions for the Cosmos Blossom Lace and a pinhole cast on video tutorial.

A daily pattern sale!
Join me for my annual Knit August promotion created to showcase some of my all time favourite designs. Every day in August I feature a surprise pattern of the day from my catalog with an automatic 50% discount.
There are a few ways to keep track of the daily featured pattern; sign up here to receive the Knit August pattern reveal e-mail, follow me on Instagram, Facebook or join my Ravelry group.
Each day I’ll share the newly featured pattern – it is always a surprise, I often don’t know myself until the day which will be next featured pattern! I can tell you this though; to allow for international timezones each Knit August promoted pattern will last for 48 hours.

I have knit many of Ambah’s patterns and we have had many of her patterns knit up for store samples. She writes a great pattern that is easy to follow.

Here are some that I have knit.

Grevillea. I didn’t realize that I never showed a picture of Grevillea after it was blocked. There was no way to go outside for pictures (it is pouring rain here) so here is one from in the store. I love this shawl. I wore it when I was in Chicago and everyone at the show commented on it.
