Bain de Soleil Shawl | Knitting Pattern
This shawl is an original design by Louise Robert for Biscotte Yarns. Bain de Soleil (which means sunbath in french) highlights our Flamel yarn in the color "Salt & Pepper", the sparkling Fizwizbiz in "Charbon" color, and the beautiful Hermione in the color "Coupe de feu". A soft and warm sunbath to wear all year long!
The inspiration for this shawl came from the colors themselves. Waiting for a spring that was late coming, I had a visceral need for vitamin D. This is how “Bain De Soleil” (which mean Sunbath in french) fell from my needles as would a ray of heat on my skin on a summer day. - Louise
