Baillie Yarn Kit
£19.00 - £40.00
BAILLIE YARN KITS NOW AVAILABLE USING OUR LUXURIOUS HAND-DYED MELISSA YARN - A BEAUTIFUL LACEWEIGHT BLEND OF ALPACA, SILK AND CASHMERE. CHOOSE FROM EITHER A YARN ONLY KIT OR YARN PLUS PDF PATTERN DOWNLOAD.
Baillie is knitted using the dramatic 'Lily of the Valley' lace pattern edged with a simple border. Its intricate decorative surface was inspired in part by the ‘white room’ of The Blackwell – an Arts and Crafts house designed by M H Baillie Scott at the turn of the nineteenth century and located here in the Lake District overlooking Lake Coniston. Four sizes are included in the pattern with everything from an expansive wedding style shawl to a neat cravat-esque necktie achievable from this single pattern.
Our yarn kit includes our Melissa yarn, a fine 1 ply Laceweight yarn, spun from a luxurious blend of baby alpaca, silk and cashmere. The yarn is perfect for this intricate design and is incredibly soft when directly against the skin. The impressive meterage of Melissa means that even the largest version of Baillie requires only 100 grams of this stunning yarn. Every skein is hand-dyed here at our Lake District studio.
Kit Size One includes a 50g skein of Melissa in the shade of your choosing, and is enough yarn to knit the neckerchief, shown here in Burnt Sienna or the second size shawlette.
Kit Size Two includes a 100g skein of Melissa in the shade of your choosing, and is enough to knit either the third or the largest size shawl - shown here in Bianca.
You can see all the beautiful hand dyed shades of Melissa here.
To order your kit simply choose which size Baillie you wish to knit, whether you require a yarn only kit or kit plus a PDF pattern download and then select which shade you wish to knit your Baillie in.

KIT TYPE ONE - YARN ONLY: You will receive either 50g or 100g of our beautiful Melissa yarn in the colour of your choice plus a Susan Crawford Vintage drawstring project bag.
