Stylecraft Dreamcatcher

Purple boots is usually a name linked with Powertex and messy art but I do love a bit of yarn! I couldn’t help buying some of the beautiful new yarn that just hit the shop – Dreamcatcher.

Dreamcatcher is the first of the new yarns from Stylecraft for 2019. It is available in six shades and is a beautiful, DK weight mélange of colours in a roving style yarn with 10% wool. The colour change is phased so that the shades shift gradually, making it perfect for the trans-seasonal designs.

I have grabbed my hook and a virus shawl is well on the way. I love the way that there is a far wider variety of colour in the yarn than there first appears by looking at the side of the cake. I often add a plain stripe to my virus shawls but I am pretty sure this won’t need one as the contrast is so good. Watch this space for updates as my shawl develops.

Prefer knitting to crochet? Have a look at some of the gorgeous cardigan and sweater patterns for Dreamcatcher yarn on our website.
