The herringbone stitch has a way of looking complex while being completely meditative to knit — and Marci Marra's Mirage Herringbone Shawl leans all the way into that. The result is a crescent-shaped shawl with a graphic, woven-looking texture that reads as seriously impressive on the needles and even better off them. This kit pairs the pattern with two skeins of Urth Harvest DK, a naturally dyed yarn spun from 100% superwash merino. Urth is a family-owned company whose yarns are dyed and prepared by skilled women at their studios in Mersin and Istanbul — and they plant a tree in Africa for every skein sold. The Harvest colorways are dyed using natural ingredients derived from roots, fruits, and nuts, which gives them a depth and subtlety that plays beautifully with the herringbone geometry. Available in black grape or indigo. 2 skeins of Urth Harvest DK (300 yards each, 600 yards total) Purchase Marci Marra's Mirage Herringbone Shawl on Ravelry separately
