New Knitty pattern "Now in a Minute" by Brenda Dayne

The new Knitty "Surprise!" patterns are up and, guess what? One of them uses Unique Sheep yarn! We were so honored when Brenda Dayne asked us to use our yarn and the shawl she designed for it, "Now in a Minute" is a perfect match for our Gradiance collection. It is elegant and feminine without being too overtly lacey, and since most of it is in a simple stockinette stitch pattern its a great option for chatty Knit Nights, travel knitting or sitting-on-the-back-porch-sipping-a-lemonade-and-soaking-in-the-sun-knitting.

This pattern requires 150g of fingering weight yarn (Brenda uses Luxe) in any of our Gradiance colorways. Brenda collaborated with Kelly to create the new colorway "Enfys" for this pattern.

p.s. if the link to the pattern doesn't open immediately, try again later. The Knitty website has a tendency to get a bit overwhelmed by the initial burst of people visiting the site when they announce new patterns!
