We’re pleased to announce the arrival of a brand new yarn – meet Pascuali Balayage!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Balayage is the result of a collaboration between knitwear designer Melanie Berg and German yarn company Pascuali. Balayage is a fingering weight blend of 80% alpaca and 20% organic merino wool. The resulting combination is incredibly soft in the hand, perfect for next-to-skin wear.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The color palette is a beautiful range of lights, mediums, and darks, neutral colors and brights, all designed to play well together for stripes and other kinds of colorwork. This harmonious palette was achieved in part before the yarn was even dyed; the alpaca fiber was naturally white and gray, while the merino was white, so all the shades of Balayage are dyed over this heathered gray base.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

Melanie Berg has designed two shawls for Balayage so far, “Rock My Shawl”<\/a> and “The Big Easy.”<\/a> Both patterns use four shades, so that’s the number I played with as I created the color combinations below.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This is just the tip of the iceberg in terms of color possibilities – we can’t wait to see what you come up with!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

For more pattern ideas, consider Julia-Maria Hegenbart’s “Rough Sea”<\/a> shawl, Victoria Maria’s “Viura”<\/a> pullover, Ewelina Murach’s “Tucked Away”<\/a> shawl, or Christelle Nihoul’s “Brise d’Automne”<\/a> hat and cowl. Our “Fingering weight” Pinterest board has lots of pattern ideas, too!<\/p>\n
