If you purchase 5 patterns from my Ravelry Store at the same time (add them all to your cart before you check out), the least expensive one will be free.

Kits for this shawl are available at Nature’s Luxury - both for the one- and for the two-colored version.

A cheerful tribute to Edinburgh’s drizzle, Rain on Princes Street will keep you fashionably cosy on your promenade.

The elongated semi-circular shawl features a traditional stitch pattern that evokes a steady stream of raindrops – and calls to mind Edinburgh’s lovely architecture.

A lacy edging dripping with dainty picots finishes it off.

The yarn, Farouche by Nature’s Luxury, is a lustrous silk and camel blend that comes in a variety of hues as subdued or as sunny as you please.
