Verdon is an incredibly beautiful pattern designed by Melanie Berg.Melanie worked in collaboration with Rosy Green to create their colour palette for the Merino d'Arles. This pattern is incredible. Please not that this is a printed pattern and will be posted to you. As a special treat from Melanie you will also be given a download code that you can use on Ravelry so that you can also have it in your Ravelry library. Verdon is knit with Rosy Green Wool’s Marino d’Arles yarn, and was inspired by the seasonal migration of this traditional sheep breed between the Alpine meadows and protected valleys like the stunning Verdon Gorge. It’s a generous rectangular shawl knit from four different colors, using short rows to seamlessly combine textures like stripes and lace into a garment that captures the steep lines and beautiful color play of the Verdon Gorge itself.
