Ready for some Regency-inspired knitting?
This is a Pride and Prejudice Advent calendar project that starts January 28, 2022, the day Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen was published! Originally designed to complement Merino y Vino's Pride and Prejudice Surprise Box, you're invited to join along even though the boxes have all sold out. Shop your stash or check out Merino y Vino's shop to get your supplies and join the fun! Inspired by the regency fashions popular during the Pride and Prejudice time-period, the First Impressions Shawl & Scarf will work wonderfully with any semi-solid/tonal/lightly speckled full fingering-weight skein and seventeen 20g fingering-weight mini-skeins of any dye-style (even those wild variegated ones). If you’re using the Pride & Prejudice Kit from Merino y Vino, each “chapter” in the pattern pertains to each day. If you’re not working from the kit you can choose to follow the chapter-a-day layout or, just like reading a good book, you can move at your own pace through the pattern. Just make sure to pay attention to the called-for colors in each chapter. I’ve sprinkled links to tutorials and resources throughout the pattern to make things as easy as possible for you. Some tutorials are videos & some are step-by-step photo tutorials, but all are helpful. Read on for all the details & happy knitting! 😘 Shaina ^_^ Note: This is a Pre-Order. The full pattern will be released on January 28, 2022. Upon purchase of this pre-order you will receive the cover page with yarn selection and pattern details.
