AVFKW x La Bien Aimée x Karen Cronjé - Geweef Shawl Bundle
As soon as we learned Aimée was coming to Verb, we dove into creating a mini-collection of Verb x La Bien Aimée samples made from patterns featured in Aimée's newest book, Neons and Neutrals. Thumbing through the book, Geweef instantly stood out at as a fun canvas. Team Verb stood over piles of yarn, in various textures and colors, trying to crack the code of how to combine them. We chose Floating Firefly as the main color. Made of alpaca, silk, and cashmere, Floating is so soft; the perfect blend to run throughout the shawl. To create Firefly, we sprinkle tiny bits of madder root across the yarn, resulting in little flecks of orange, similar to the spark of a firefly. We added Verb's Rumor (merino and silk), a yarn used only for special occasions, in the fresh, green colorway Seedling. And two skeins of La Bien Aimée's Merino Singles (one of which is Day by the Bay, our custom LBA color). We are thrilled with the result and feel that it encapsulates both Verb and La Bien Aimée's sign
