The Design

Designer (and Churchmouse friend) Shannon Cook loves to play with color and texture. And this mesmerizing crescent shawl is an excellent marriage of both. In fact, Feyre (pronounced 'fey-ruh') is a yin-yang union of lightness and darkness, softness and strength. With abundant styling options, this shawl is stunning any way you wear it.

Shannon has admitted she has a “soft spot for marl yarns,” and so do we. Brooklyn Tweed Shelter and Shelter Marls forge a dynamic and compelling fabric that is feather-light, yet wonderfully warm. And in this worsted-weight 100% wool yarn, Feyre will knit up right quick. So whether you adore the dappled marls or are ready for a vibrant color adventure, the result will be a shawl you can’t wait to show off.

Feyre features textured and slipped stitches and countless chances to concoct your own colorways. The pattern even includes a coupon code for downloadable Feyre coloring pages to help you design your own palette!
