Yarn Kit - Shieldmaiden by Julie Knits in Paris

Another breathtaking collaboration between Norne Yarn and Julie Knits in Paris, the Shieldmaiden Shawl was created especially to introduce Norne Yarn’s two latest bases, Luxury Cloud (42% Baby Alpaca, 35% Silk, 13% non-superwash Fine Merino and 10% Yak) and Luxury Fingering (50% Yak and 50% Silk), with a one-skein-of-each challenge in mind.
The result is a luxury shield-shawl, to comfort, encourage and give courage for contemporary Shieldmaidens, featuring graphic eyelet lines exploring different directions in each section.

We are incredibly proud to present to you the most stunning kit selection. These colour combinations are our upmost favourites, especially curated together with Tuva of Norne Yarn to properly showcase the beauty of the Shieldmaiden. Bring out your inner Warrior Woman and pick your mood!

Beauty can be deceptive, and in this case, the Shieldmaiden shawl looks intriguing and impressive even though it is a easy project to complete, it’s relaxing garter stitch and yarn over sections that change direction produce a simple but dramatic design.

The Shieldmaiden Yarn Kit contains all the yarn you need to make your very own shawl, and it can be bought with or without the pattern.
In addition you'll need circular needles size 4mm / US6 and 4.5mm / US7 both in 80cm / 32” length, 2 stitch markers, and a darning needle for weaving in your ends.
