Bibliophile is a potato chippy* wrap especially for makers who love books. It is inspired by the juxtaposition of colors and textures seen in a shelf full of books, and the twists and turns taken by the stories inside them. Each section of the shawl features a slightly different texture pattern and shaping, creating variations on a theme. When the knitting is finished, you can wrap yourself up in your love of books.
Designed by Karalee Harding for Little Skein, this asymmetrical, irregularly-shaped shawl begins as a basic top-down triangle, but (like any good story) it takes some unexpected turns along the way. Starting at the top of the center spine, it is worked outward in 5 sections, each featuring a different stitch pattern; the shawl shaping also changes from one section to the next, making it very hard not to knit just one more row.
We've put together kits in the pictured colors, which were drawn from the book inspired colorways created for our Little Stitches subscription box.
The small set is called Bookworm and features colors inspired by Beatrix Potter, Misty of Chincoteague, A Little Princess and more.
The large set is called Reading Fort and contains these inspirations plus more from the Wizard of Oz, A Christmas Carol, To Kill a Mockingbird, and more. (The name of each mini-skein plus its inspiration is in the pattern).
Choose a yarn & pattern kit, which includes just that, in the size of your choice, or order a luxe kit which includes:
*The change of colors and patterns means you can't help knitting just one more row.
