I'm really excited to finally introduce Grand Bazaar. I loved knitting this shawl and it's a new shape for me. I wanted a big shawl and this is definitely big, although you can make it smaller (see notes in the pattern).
Two self-striping colours are combined to create an exotic blend of garter stitch, lace and colour. Grand Bazaar is large with an interesting, asymmetrical shape which is fun to knit.
I used Lang Mille Colori Baby for this shawl. I saw two colours one day while I was teaching at Spin A Yarn and thought they would look great together. Garter stitch rows are worked in stripes and are mixed up with lace sections which are worked in just one colour.
You can pre-order the Grand Bazaar kit now. I will have a few balls of this yearn available at Woolfest next week and the pattern will be available but I'm not doing kits at Woolfest. Full price for the yarn and pattern if purchased separately will be approx £51.50 but you can pre-order kits for £46.50 including free UK postage. Kits include 8 balls of Lang Mille Colori (4 of each colour) as well as print and pdf copy of the pattern.
Below is the schematic which shows the shape and size of the shawl.
