Flounce
Sassy, cute and oodles of fun, Flounce is the perfect shawl for a colourful adventure. She playfully blends three skeins of fingering with simple stitches and unexpected angles and is sure to put a spring in your step and a smile on your face.
Flounce is great dressed up with a gown or worn relaxed with jeans. Fling her over your shoulders, let her hang gracefully down your back, or snuggle her around your neck for a whimsical dose of cosy.
With soothingly-addictive stripes, Flounce leads you through gorgeous pops of colour to a deceptively simple slipped-stitch edge, before finishing with a rippling border. Plan your stripes and colours with the handy colouring-in page!
Quick and simple to knit, Flounce is perfect for both experienced knitters and adventurous beginners.
