Ephemera

As a passionate yarn enthusiast and collector, I know the thrill of discovering stunning yarns that catch your eye even before you knit with them. This holds true for many of us who adore those beautiful, long-repeat, color-changing yarns! I particularly love when they come bundled as a cake, allowing me to admire how the colors transition seamlessly from one to the next. That’s why I designed the Ephemera shawl with these vibrant yarn cakes in mind. Along one side of the shawl, you’ll see the exquisite color progression preserved, with bold stripes of varying widths that beautifully showcase each hue. On the opposite side, you'll experience the delightful surprise of color-blocking, cleverly interrupting the yarn’s natural flow to create an eye-catching asymmetrical design. The result is a shawl that not only boasts a symmetrical shape but also features a unique patterning on each side, making it a perfect addition to your knitting project repertoire. Elevate your knitting experience with this striking Ephemera shawl pattern, perfect for showcasing those special yarn cakes you’ve been saving!
