Souk Self Striping Yarn Makes Beautiful Garments such as the Waves Shawlette and Fleur-de-Lis Mitts

Hello everyone!

Need some great ideas for a couple of quick projects?   Meet the Waves Shawlette and the Fleur-de-Lis Wristers.  

Have you met Souk yarn?   Souk yarn comes in awesome colors, and is a very cool silk and wool blend self-striping yarn.... and yes, it works up as a long self striping yarn.  Souk yarn is a blend of silk and wool to make a fabulous garment that is warm with drape. Bits of sari silk are sprinkled throughout making this yarn glow!


The Waves Shawlette is a quick to knit shawlette made from only one skein of Souk.   This shawlette is worked from the neck down and is worked to a beautiful lacy edge.   This shawlette can easily be lengthened using a second skein of yarn prior to adding the edging.

Both patterns are available as free downloads on our website.   Have a great day!

Happy Fibering
