Taiga - “Royal Starling” 1
Design by Johanna Lindahl / Mijo Crochet
A while ago I got the opportunity to compose a Scheepjes Catona yarn kit with eight of
my favorite colours for Favoritgarner. The yarn kit, that I named “Royal Starling”,
consists of eight skeins of Scheepjes Catona 50 g one of each colour 173, 179, 240, 247,
282, 383, 393 and 394.
This is a description how to make the Taiga Shawl “Royal Starling” edition that has
another border than the original Taiga shawl, and includes a row-by-row colour guide.
What you need:
Yarn, Scheepjes Catona “Royal Starling” yarn kit from Favoritgarner.
Crochet hook 4.0 mm
Darning needle
(Glass beads for the tassels)
My shawl sizes 150 x 73 cm (tassels not included).
