Ice Dreams Shawl Kit
This is so easy! Linen stitch is really fun to work with as the pattern changes depending on how you stripe the yarn. Once you have set up the first couple of rows it is serious TV crochet. I have used a mixture of Plump DK and Pudding, this was on a bit a whim, but I think it works well. I would definitely weave in the ends as you go, you can also crochet them in as you are working.
The kit includes:
Plump DK: 4 skeins of Pavlova, 1 skein of Bubblegum, 1 skein of Bonbon.
Pudding: 1 ball of Lemon Curd), 3 balls of Darjeeling
You will also need a 4.0mm crochet hook (I crochet quite loosely, so use 4.5mm if you prefer)
Finished Measurements: Wingspan: 145cm, Point to the centre of wingspan 72cm (approx.)

Washing
Plump Superchunky and Plump DK are made from the highest quality superfine merino and baby alpaca. These really are special and luxurious fibres and should be treated carefully! Having said that both yarns are suitable for delicate hand washing. Use a specialist detergent and do not agitate or twist the fibres to retain the gorgeous softness and shape of your garment.
Shedding
Because of the roving nature of our yarns (they are single ply, rather than tightly twisted), some shedding may occur. The best way to deal with this is spray your finished garment with water and leave to dry flat, naturally before the first wearing. This sets the fibres and should stop any problems.

Using your yarn
All our yarn comes in skeins. Before using you need to wind the skein into a ball or you will get into an awful tangled mess! If you are not sure how to do this you can watch our video here!
