Happy Cinco de Mayo and Free Pattern Friday. We have an accessory that would look striking for your night out for some delicious chips and salsa. The once-paid-for Ardenne shawl, designed by Rachel Brockman, is now free forever, and that’s worth celebrating. Let’s learn more about this piece!

When Noelle and Universe collide, you can expect an accessory that will shine as bright as you. With a soft texture and a beautiful sparkle, this shawl has so much to love about it. Starting at the smallest point, you will increase to the widest edge to knit a boomerang-shaped shawl. After the body of this piece is complete, you will knit a gorgeous lace edging to add even more pizzazz to Ardenne.

The color of Universe used in the pattern is no longer available, but not to worry! We have knit several swatches to give you a look at some other options. Alternative combinations include Universe 10-02 Cotton matched with Noelle 303 Pixie (red swatch), Universe 10-07 Woolen and Noelle 304 Calypso (blue swatch), and Universe 10-03 Crystal with Noelle 301 Elida (silver swatch). Plus, you can visit our website to explore even more color combinations with these two yarns!
