SKILL LEVEL:
Adventurous Beginner: This pattern is for those who feel comfortable with knitting and have made a few projects, using various skills and techniques. Skills/concepts include: simultaneously working with two yarns, carrying yarn up the side, purling three stitches together, and knitting and purling into the same stitch.
Notes From the Designer:
Featuring the Emerging Hues Kit in Resilient Sock, Ambling Way is a simple, rectangular shawl that features alternating sections of Bramble and Stockinette stitch. The playful bobbles of the Bramble Stitch appear to sit on top of a background of Stockinette, which creates a strong, linear design that emphasizes the gorgeous colors of the Emerging Hues Kit.
To knit this piece, you’ll begin and end with a 12-row Bramble Stitch border, while the body of the shawl is knit using both the Bramble and Stockinette stitches. You’ll cast on with C1, and complete the border and first pattern sequence before transitioning to C2 and eventually C3. After the midway point, you’ll return to C2, and then finally end with C1, which creates a symmetrical design.

just started it im going to make it in one color way. it is a beautiful pattern and the video was helpful for the bramble stitch. easy enough for an ambitious beginer. i am very happy with the pattern and am excited to wear the finished product!
Ambling Way Pattern
I downloaded this as a free down load after watching the video and as a brand new knitter with just the basic knowledge of stitches, I gave this a try. This is my first attempt at making something that is actually wearable. Chandi explained very well how to do the Bramble Stitch and I am doing very well on the pattern so far and I love it. But I will have to get the yarn that is suggested that she used. I am currently using an inexpensive bamboo/cotton blend 3 weight yarn just to try this pattern out and I think I have done well so far with it. I feel confident enough with this pattern now, that I can go ahead and purchase some of the better yarn that is available at Expression Fiber Arts. This is an easy beginner friendly pattern for which I believe is worthy of a better quality yarn. Truly a gorgeous pattern.

Ambling way wrap
I got your pattern to make this wrap and I ordered the yarn from you in the color way Copper Patina Hues. I’m thinking that this wrap would be a pretty fall wrap in these colors. I hope I will have time too make it then.
