She shares her summer tops knitted with linen yarn. They’re delightful and I love the tips she has for working with linen.

The Elbe shawl’s clean, modern aesthetic makes it an eye-catching addition to any wardrobe. The rib check stitch creates texture and the cabled eyelet lace border adds a touch of elegance, making it as fun to create as it is to wear.
Harlequin checks.
A fun, gorgeous shawl by Ambah O’Brien that's mostly simple to knit.
The Columbina shawl starts with garter rows, but the middle has a two-color mosaic section with a picot edge.
