Pattern Details

The box contains everything needed to complete the Bright Side Shawl and the Intertwined Shawl. Please read on for details regarding the Yugi tee.

This Yugi tee is worked flat top down, until after the underarms where you will join for the round. Some mild short row shaping is worked for the shoulders for this drop sleeve tee. 

The tee has been graded for sizes 1(2, 3, 4)(5, 6, 7)(8, 9, 10) to fit wearer’s full chest circumference of 29.5(33, 36.5, 40.25)(43.75, 47.25, 50.75)(54.5, 58, 61.5)”.  The finished chest measurements have 6" of positive ease added in, and it can be easily worn with differing ease.

You will need 1(1, 1, 2)(2, 2, 2)(2, 2, 2) skeins of Stormy Night (Color A) or 423(460, 488, 527)(542, 594, 653)(692, 730, 772) yds. Each box comes with 1 skein of Stormy Night (492 yds / 100 g), so some sizes will need to purchase an additional skein HERE. 

For the mini skeins (Color B-H), you will need a TOTAL yardage of 480(532, 566, 598)(635, 725, 802)(875, 915, 994) yds, measured based on the exact cycling of colors in the sample. The full breakdown of yardage by color is included in the listing photos. The boxes come with 686 total yards of minis, so some sizes will require more yardage. There are a few ways to go about this:

• You can purchase 2 full boxes. You’d get the additional Stormy Night skein needed in the second box, but you’d receive double the patterns and suncatchers as well. Those could always be gifted to someone else though! 
• Swap the minis to the thinner stripes and use Stormy Night for the thicker stripes. Additional Stormy Night skeins will likely be required.
• Space out the color stripes by alternating a Stormy Night lace stripe between each color.
• Instead of cycling through the colors, you can keep using one mini until you use it up, then swap to the next color for a slow gradient. This would allow you to use each mini to the maximum. This may help but you will likely still need more yardage.
• If you like one color in particular, you can get a full skein of that color (included in in-stock sock sets - while supplies last) and do a larger number of stripes with it and single stripes of all the other colors. Keep in mind the full skein might work up differently than the mini skein. 

Please take some time to figure out your yardage needs if you plan on making the Yugi tee with your box! If you need help calculating yardage, please feel free to reach out to me or Noriko!

Suncatcher Details

Hendrickson Handmade Suncatchers are hand wrapped using non-tarnish wiring, and 14k gold filled accents. Each suncatcher brings a unique rainbow with a crystal prism ball and crystals.

The suncatchers have a 2" wide hoop, and are a total of 9" long with the chain, hoop, and bottom accents. They are also very lightweight at less than 2 oz each!

For optimal sunlight, hang in dry places using an s hook or additional fishing wire for length. Corner and window spots tend to reflect the most tiny rainbows.

Each box will receive one of the pictured suncatchers at random. If you reeeaally have a color preference, let me know in the order notes but I can’t guarantee anything!

Thank you for your support!
