It’s Free Pattern Friday!
Today, Turkish Delight knit in Colorburst (pattern link here).
Winter doesn’t have to be drab and gray. Today’s free pattern proves that!
Colorburst’s big, beautiful 660-yard “beehive” style balls make it easy to create this design with just one ball of each colorway. Designer Rachel Brockman alternated two different colors to give maximum impact. She chose one light tone – 112 Romance, and one dark – 119 Bursa, for strong contrast between the stripes.
Simple stripes are broken by mosaic-knit squares, the “Turkish Delight” confection that gives the shawl its name. They add interest to an already fascinating shawl!
Turkish Delight are a popular treat in the office breakroom around this time of year. They’re a sweet but sophisticated treat, just like this shawl.
Have a wonderfully sweet weekend, and may your days be as merry and bright as this shawl!
Happy crafting!
