Bain de Soleil Shawl | Knitting Pattern and Optional Kits

This beautiful Bain de Soleil Shawl is an original design written by Louise Robert and published in June 2019. With this kit, you will knit a soft and warm sunbath to wear all year - especially needed during cold winter!

"The inspiration for this shawl came from the colors themselves (referring to the original kit). Waiting for a spring that was late coming, I had a visceral need for vitamin D. This is how "Bain De Soleil" (which means Sunbath in french) fell from my needles as would a ray of heat on my skin on a summer day." - Louise Robert

You have the option to purchase the pattern only or the knitting kit, which contains both the yarn and the pattern needed to knit this project!
