A knitter friend of ours, who lives in Northern Minnesota, thought it was appropriate to have a knitting project commemorating the designation of the Boundary Water Canoe Area (BWCA) as an International Dark Sky Sanctuary! 🌑
Not being a designer herself, per se, she reached out to a favorite Swiss designer, Marianne Niemack; AKA Runningyarn, with the idea. A knitting collaboration was born, and the result is the beautiful “Dark Sky Neckwarmer”; a perfect piece to wear when stargazing on a chilly evening in the BWCA.
We have put together two colorways for kits: Blue and Pine. Both use Malabrigo Rios. A superwash Merino.Â
Kit Includes:
PatternÂ
Two skeins of yarnÂ
Needles are NOT included in the kit. The pattern calls for 16" circular sizes 6 and 7.
