Rainbow Autumn
Back in June we told you all about Rainbow Autumn, the newest member of the Estelle Yarns gradient family, that would be launched in the Fall. Fast forward a few short months and we can say without a doubt that Rainbow Autumn has become one of the hottest yarns on the market.
A decadent blend of 50% cotton and 50% wool, Rainbow Autumn is the perfect yarn for the transition from Fall to Winter when it’s not so cold that you need a big wool scarf, yet still cool enough to need a little something to chase the chill. This rich combination of fibres enhances drape and provides for excellent stitch definition. It really is no wonder Rainbow Autumn has been so well received.
Available in 200-gram balls, Rainbow Autumn is perfect for one ball projects. Whether it be the free shawl pattern on the label or one from your own pattern library, this 680-meter ball is typically more than enough for a generous shawl.
We have had loads of requests to make the shawl pattern that comes on the Rainbow Autumn ball band available online and we can happily say that you asked and we listened! The Rainbow Autumn Triangle Shawl is now available as a free download on our website. Not only is it much larger print and easier to read, there’s lots of room in the margins should you wish to make any annotations.
Rainbow Autumn is a slow colour gradient which means there are no colour repeats, no colour pooling, and less ends to weave in! What knitter or crocheter doesn’t love that?! With six playfully eye-popping shades to choose from, Rainbow Autumn will make anyone forget about Old Man Winter.
