Airbender Kit (Urth Yarns)

Air, the essential element for all living beings. It’s everywhere; in gentle breezes, powerful storms, and even in stillness. It inspires us without being seen, with its gentle touches, ice cold winds, and warming gusts. Even as we breathe. Airbender is a shawl that represents the different conditions of air and the graceful movements of an airbender. The first section symbolizes spiraling winds, blowing in dynamic motion. The next section captures the essence of air itself with nupps. While the following section focuses on releasing it with holes, embodying a sense of lightness and stillness. Finally, the shawl is trimmed with a wavy border, reminiscent of a gentle breeze. >>Choose your favorite colors  *We will include the pattern with your kit* Weight: Fingering and Lace Yarn 1: 16, 3 skeins Yarn 2: Bonmoher, 2 skeins Designer: Yiğitcan / Pufido Craft: Knitting Specs: Dimensions: One Size; 54” / 137 cm straight edge, 66.5” / 169 cm sloped edge, 44” / 112 cm bind-off edge Needles: US 4 / 3.50 mm circular needles long enough to accommodate sts; or size needed to obtain correct gauge Notions: Cable needle (optional), tapestry needle, Stitch markers (optional) Skill level: Experienced Gauge: 26 sts x 44 rows = 4” / 10 cm in Alternating Stockinette & Garter stitch with 2 different weights (fingering + lace), blocked A repeat of 14 sts x 28 rows Chart B or C measures 1.75” / 4.5 cm horizontally, 2.75” / 7 cm vertically Gauge is not crucial but will affect the size of the shawl & yarn consumption.
