The Summer Solstice 2020 Offering!

Summer is very nearly here and I have been so looking forward to sharing what we've been working on! This season's offering has a little something extra special. I collaborated with Jacqueline Cieslak to create a design using our brand-new base, Undine!

Undine is a fingering weight, linen and organic cotton yarn that we dyed in an exclusive, limited colorway- Chestnut Blossom!

Solis a tank for the Summer Solstice - it is a beautiful sleeveless top featuring an original asymmetrical lace pattern inspired by the delicate blossoms of the horse chestnut tree. It is a double v-neck, without a front or back. The pattern includes 9 sizes with instructions for cropped or full-length, details for modifying the width of the straps, and both written and charted instructions for the lace panels. Modern in it's ease and simplicity, this will be something you'll want to wear all summer long!

What's Inside

Jacqui and I have been busy behind the scenes for the last few months! This Limited Summer Solstice 2020 Offering includes a printed booklet with the pattern for the Sol Tank, the coordinating washcloth pattern to use up any leftover yarn, an extra large moon pouch with artwork from our very own Irene Wachtler and three full skeins of our newest base, Undine. We took a deep dive into our inspiration for this season, the chestnut tree! Part of the distinct Portland landscape, these beautiful trees bloom with conical flowers and are a significant marking of summertime.

#Blackoutbestseller week is a challenge through this Saturday to purchase (and eventually read, enjoy, etc) at least two books from Black authors in an effort to not only boost sales but also to encourage publishers to publish more books by Black authors. Click here if you need a place to start. If you are not in a position to purchase or if you are interested in doing more, now is a great time to leave reviews for books you've read from Black authors.
