My original vision / inspiration for this design was architectural steel framework. However, when I began charting a few pattern repeats, that geometrical framework I had envisioned suddenly appeared to be a big bouquet of flowers! Needless to say, I immediately fell head over heels in LOVE with this design! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
Knitting with Spincycle is always such a treat! The mosaic patterning of “Promises in the Dark” highlights the slow and dramatic color transitions of Dream State beautifully. Combine any of Spincycle’s gorgeous shades with a dark and moody shade of Harrisville Designs / nightshades … or possibly invert your colors and use Harrisville’s daylights … whichever way you choose, I invite you to enjoy the ride! – Cheryl Faust
Promises in the Dark Bundles by Cheryl Faust with Harrisville Designs & Spincycle Yarns
Promises in the Dark by Cheryl Faust is a geometric decorated triangular shawl, featuring Spincycle’s Dream State which shines against the rich dark nightshades base by Harrisville. This knit would also look wonderful using daylights as a base!
We’ve put together bundles inspired by our favourite projects by test knitters, as well as Cheryl’s original sample!
Bundles:
- Cheryl’s Original – 2 skeins of nightshades in 12:57 & 2 skeins of Dream State in Deep Bump
- Beth’s Version – 2 skeins of daylights in bloodshot & 2 skeins of Dream State in Rusted Rainbow
Pattern not included, view it on Ravelry.
Important: Most test knitters for this design used all of the 2 skeins of Dream State, but some test knitters needed a 3rd skein. Please purchase an additional skein here if you wish to additional yardage of C2 to be safe.
Want to make Promises in the Dark your own way? Pick up individual skeins of your choice for both yarns here!
