Campfire

100% of CAMPFIRE pattern sales during the month of May will be generously donated to Vinalhaven Community Outreach, an impactful non-profit organization dedicated to supporting the diverse needs of individuals on Vinalhaven Island, Maine. By purchasing this pattern, you not only enhance your knitting skills but also contribute to a noble cause that benefits the local community.

The CAMPFIRE pattern features a stunning traditional triangle shawl, skillfully knit using the exquisite cashgora fiber—a luxurious blend derived from Angora (mohair) and cashmere-producing goats. This unique combination results in a beautifully soft and warm fabric that drapes elegantly, making it perfect for any season. The yarn is sourced from Cashmere People Yarns, a brand committed to ethical and environmentally conscious practices. Each skein is handspun and hand-dyed by talented women artisans in Afghanistan and Tajikistan, ensuring that your project carries a story. Every yarn label includes a photograph and the name of the remarkable woman who crafted your skein, allowing you to connect with the creators behind your materials. After production, the yarn is marketed in the United States by PortFiber, a trusted name in the knitting community.

Though I admire the idea of wearing my own CAMPFIRE shawl at the upcoming retreat this summer, I take great pride in supporting my beloved island of Vinalhaven, along with Casey and the incredible women of Cashmere People Yarns. When you choose to knit the CAMPFIRE pattern, you are not just creating a beautiful accessory; you are also making a meaningful impact in the lives of others. Join us in celebrating craftsmanship and community support by knitting with purpose this May!
