With the talents behind this one:
Along with some gorgeous yarn, and a little inspirations from the stars?
An amazing new pattern collection, of course!
Today I am delighted to share this beautiful pattern collection with all you knitters out there- here comes the eye candy:
Each of these patterns features a different Tanis Fiber Arts fingering weight yarn (my favorite weight to work with, btw). You can drool over the whole collections of Tanis' yarns here.
The Stella Collection is available on Ravelry as a pdf ebook for $15.00 CAD. You can also find each pattern available for $6.00 CAD a piece.
Now the title of this post does say giveaway, so that's just what we'll do. I have an entire ebook to share with one lucky reader. What do you have to do? Just leave a comment below sharing what design you would cast on first (I think Suncrest is calling my name!).
The giveaway will close on Monday, July 23, 2012 at 11:59 pm EST. Winner to be announced shortly after.
Annnnnnnd..... GO!

Oh wow, they're beautiful shawls! Adhara is gorgeous and I love suncrest too... Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI would go with Nashira first.
ReplyDeleteThey're all so pretty... I wouldn't be able to decide between Suncrest and Adhara... but I think Suncrest would be first on the needles.
ReplyDeleteI think I'd have to start with the Adhara!
ReplyDeletesuncrest or Nashira...
ReplyDeleteall are Lovely!
I am absolutely in love with Adhara. It's a gorgeous collection as a whole as well!
ReplyDeleteI love them all but most definitely Nashira first! :-)

That's funny, because I think I hear the Suncrest calling MY name.
ReplyDeleteI'd start with Adhara, a perfect summer knit!
ReplyDeleteSolaria for sure. I even have the perfect yarn for it!
ReplyDeletekatherinelynn04 on rav
Definitely Adhara!!! :D
ReplyDeleteThese are all so beautiful - its a rare thing to come across a collection that I'd actually knit them all! I think I'd start with Solaria and then maybe Nashira.
ReplyDeleteI love everything about the Suncrest! The colorway is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteNashira
ReplyDeleteI have Adhara in my queue. Beautiful! as are th eothers as well
ReplyDeletei need the Solaria
ReplyDeleteI think I would start with Adhara, but would have to knit them all, as they are so lovely. Beautiful pictures, too.

Hard to decide but I guess it would be Suncrest. What a great collection.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm either Nashira or Adhara would come first.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely Adhara. Gorgeous pattern!
ReplyDeleteOh, that's a hard question to ask! Hm, either Suncrest or Solaria ... but I think Suncrest first, then Solaria! :)

Projects like Nashira have been calling my name...so I would probably knit that one first, but I do love Suncrest as well. Very tough choice as they are beautiful patterns!
ReplyDeleteSuncrest for sure would be my pick!
ReplyDeleteOlofDrofn on rav and writer of http://www.knittingwitholof.com
Love that red little number. What a fantastic collection of patterns.
ReplyDeleteIt would definitely be Suncrest for me. I love the colour Tanis knit it in as well.
ReplyDeleteSo gorgeous! I think Solaris is my fave.
ReplyDeleteAll the items in this collection are lovely, but Nashira is definitely my favorite.
ReplyDeleteAdhara, or Solaria!
ReplyDeleteAdhara. I love the color!
ReplyDeleteRachel (yarngirl99 on Ravelry)
I would go with Solaris! Such a neat cowl.
ReplyDeleteI would have to start with Adhara - beautiful
ReplyDeleteCathy (BeBerLuWeen on Ravelry)
I would love to start Nashira. They are all beautiful though.
ReplyDeleteknitterlydesigns on Ravelry
I would cast on either Nashira or Suncrest as a Christmas gift for my momma :) She's love to wear both of those!
ReplyDeleteI would cast on Solaria first.
ReplyDeleteOh, I would have to start the Nashira first. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you: Suncrest is definitely my first choice! I've never knit any shawls, so they all look exciting and fun
ReplyDeletemelanie . s . holden at gmail dot com
I'm now addicted to lace... so the Adhara would be my choice
ReplyDeleteThey are all b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l! I think I would begin with Nashira.
ReplyDeleteIt's Nashira all the way for me. I love the color and I love stolls. I have a blue that would look amazing in. I'm bigblueice on ravelry!
ReplyDeleteadhara, but I truly love all 4, can't remember the last time that happened.
ReplyDeleteOh, tough choice! I think I'd start with Adhara though. Thank you for the chance to win this gorgeous collection!
ReplyDeleteI love both Nashira and Suncrest. They are both gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteAdhara - I love the leaf pattern combined with a lace pattern. It's a beautiful shawl and I love the yarn colour as well!
ReplyDeleteSuncrest would be the first one cast on for me. In fact, I already have the yarn in my stash, just waiting for needles!
ReplyDeleteHmm...Adhara or Solaria. With enough needles, that wouldn't be a problem . . .
ReplyDeleteI would immediately cast on Adhara, beautiful!
ReplyDeleteAdhara.
ReplyDeleteWow! I'd start with Adhara I think:D Fingers crossed!
ReplyDeleteMy fav is Suncrest. Thanks so much!
ReplyDeletegussek on Ravelry
I would start with Adhara and then Nashira since I've never made a rectangular scarf!
ReplyDelete(Saragl on ravelry)
I would cast on Nashira first.
ReplyDeleteI would definitely cast on "Adhara" first...and in "Shadow". I have a great dress that is screaming for a drape in that color.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE all the new patterns, but I think my favorite is Sucrest, too. I am partial to oranges/reds.
ReplyDeleteI've been saying nashira since I first saw this collection, but.... suncrest is starting to make a strong case for top spot in the queue!
ReplyDeleteFor me, the Adhara has my needles and fingers twitching! They are all soooo beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI would believe Nashira is calling mine. I would love to cast on with this pattern first.
ReplyDeleteI love the whole collection, but would definitely cast on for the Suncrest first! Love the pattern, and I love the colours that Tanis used for it. :)
ReplyDeleteI would cast on the Solaria first. I love all the patterns though.
ReplyDeleteI love Tanis' yarns and these patterns with Julie Crawford are beautiful. I'd cast on Solaria also. I love a summer weight cowl, for those cool evening breezes.
ReplyDeleteAdhara. Definitely Adhara. :)
ReplyDeleteSolaria is looking lovely to me!
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love Alhara! Thanks so much for such an awesome contest.
ReplyDeleteI keep looking at Adhara and trying to decide what color combination to use as I have a nice stash of Tanis Purple Label from which to choose. Of course, winning the patterns would be lovely as I want to knit them all!
ReplyDeleteThanks.
Adhara is calling my name...
ReplyDeleteI COULD start all of them simultaneously, but a more realistic me would start with Solaria. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteSuncrest
ReplyDeleteSuncrest is just so lovely!
ReplyDeleteNashira is my favorite!
ReplyDeleteRav: GingerLee25
I'd cast on Seacrest first
ReplyDeleteRavID: catiecat
Oh, Adhara for me! Love the texture!
ReplyDeleteRav: elns
Adhara is gorgeous, but they are all beautiful. I might have to cast on a few! Ravelry- mcchase
ReplyDeleteI think Suncrest and then Adhara. Or maybe Adhara and then Suncrest. Or may Nashira and then Adhara. Or maybe ... oh how does one choose???? They're all so beautiful! Rhea
ReplyDeleteNashira and then Adhara, possibly followed by Solaria.
ReplyDeleteThey are gorgeous!!!!!
I had Suncrest on my Favorites list before the next pictures even loaded, lol. I even picked up some great yarn at a 60% off sale. Thanks for the great giveaway. Rav ID: nmujillybean
ReplyDeleteLove her shawl designs and the fiber!! Thanks. Suncrest looks to be the choice to start right away.
ReplyDeleteLove her shawl designs and the fiber!! Thanks. Suncrest looks to be the choice to start right away.
ReplyDeleteI want to make an Adhara sooooo bad! I need to figure out that stitch pattern on the edging. So cool!
ReplyDeleteI do believe that Nashira is calling my name. They are all beautiful. Maybe I could start two at once... Ravelry-Montanalamb
ReplyDeleteI'm itching to cast them all on but first up would be Suncrest!
ReplyDeleteprojectstashEL on Ravelry
Can I cast on one of each??? ;-) I think I'd probably pick adhara first though. :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm so torn.... I love Adhara, but then Suncrest is so pretty too. Perhaps I'd start with Suncrest because it looks like it would just fly off the needles.
ReplyDeleteCheryl
I would be all about Nashira. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI think it would have to be Solaria.
ReplyDeletebrookeal(at)hotmail.com
I'd start with Nashira, I would love to knit something with fingering yarn xx
ReplyDeleteNashira is my pick. I envision cool fall nightswith that around my shoulders. Cozy and feminine.
ReplyDeleteI've been drooling over Adhara for several days--it would have to be first on my list.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful collection! I would have to cast on Adhara first.
ReplyDeleteAdhara would be my first, followed closely by Suncrest.
ReplyDeleteI would cast on Nashira first :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful patterns! Adhara would be my first choice, without a doubt. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteNashira has my name on it! Definitely have to check out the yarns to go with these gorgeous patterns.
ReplyDeleteI love them all but I think Adhara is calling my name.
ReplyDeleteI was just thinking that I don't have any lacy scarves or stoles... Nashira would definitely be first! Love the simple, clean, beautiful lines.
ReplyDeleteI'd cast on Solaria first! These designs are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteMy choice would be Suncrest and it would be soon because I have finished 2 shawls in the last 6 months and I am addicted, yes addicted.
ReplyDeleteI'd make Adhara first, but love them all.
ReplyDeleteI've never made a shawl before. I'd make the Adhara - I think it's beautiful.

ReplyDeleteFor sure Suncrest for me.
ReplyDeleteSuncrest for me too. Lovely patterns!! :)

ReplyDeleteSuncrest, definitely! I have been looking at it daily since the collection was released. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteAdhara first, followed quickly by Suncrest! All are lovely!
ReplyDeleteUm, Nashira, duh! : ) I always feel bad posting during contests like this. I should always comment so you know how many people really do read and appreciate your work (I say this knowing there is a slim chance of winning ; ). Keep up the good work - love you blog!
ReplyDeleteI love Suncrest and Adhara -- they're just calling to me!
ReplyDeleteNashira - it seems like such a classic, versatile style.
ReplyDeleteNashira. It's so gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteIt's a tough one! I'm picking Nashira first :)
ReplyDeleteSolaria! Although with my yarn choice it would more likely be something called Marinaria.
ReplyDeleteOh! It is sooo difficult to choose. Definitely a Nashira for my mum. And then an Adhara for myself. And a Solaria for my sister. How can I resist?
ReplyDeleteI would definetly cast on Solaria first!! So beautiful. :)
ReplyDeleteAdhara for me. The lace pattern looks fun.
ReplyDeleteI like Nashira the best.
ReplyDeleteSolaria!
ReplyDeleteI would love to cast on to Suncrest, thanks for the great giveaway!

ReplyDeleteAdhara is calling my name. I'm thinking do I have anything in the stash shed that would do this shawl justice.
ReplyDeleteI would cast on sincerest first, but these patterns are all lovely!!
ReplyDeleteI men I would cast on for sun rest first. (Trying to type on a tablet!)

ReplyDelete-tmr714 on Rav

ReplyDeleteSolaria since I'm into knitting cowls right now! All are gorgeous!

All beautiful but especially enamored of Solaria!
ReplyDeleteI love Solaria - such a pretty cowl. And nice for cooler fall evenings.
ReplyDeleteNashira first. Definitely.
ReplyDeleteSolaria is call to me!
ReplyDeleteNashira first...definitely! And then Adhara. I love the entire collection! Thanks for a giveaway. jaydawnrn on rav

ReplyDeleteSOLARIAAAA!!!!!! Such a gorgeous cowl, MUST KNIT!!!
ReplyDeleteAdhara, definitely.
ReplyDeleteMy first choice is Adhara......but I love them all.
ReplyDeleteLove the lacy edge of Suncrest! The colorway is one of my favorites too. I knitted French press knit slippers for my daughter in the same pink, tangerine, fuschia combo.
ReplyDeleteOoooh, they are so beautiful! I think Adhara first (then the others in rapid succession!) Thank you for the change to win this prize!!
ReplyDeleteoops! 'chance' not change :))

ReplyDeleteI really like the solaria, especially in that yellow color.
ReplyDeleteAdhara and Suncrest would be in competition!
ReplyDeleteelizabeth.caveny @ gmail . com
Solaria is GORGEOUS! It would be hard to pick, though....all are so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteTammy M.
Solaria is amazing- as are the others!
ReplyDeleteI love Nashira.
ReplyDeleteIt's got to be Nashira ... so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI would chose Suncrest, naturally, as it is knit and the photo is styled using the rich, warm hues that transport me somewhere romantic every autumn...! Aaaahhh...mmmm...
ReplyDeleteOh, I think Suncrest is beautiful! Thanks.
ReplyDeleteskyeaton@insightbb.com
I can definitely see myself knitting all of these, but Solaria would be my first.
ReplyDeleteI think Adhara is just beautiful! And after that...Suncrest, love the colors!
ReplyDeleteI've got 2 favorites: the Suncrest and the Adhara shawls. I already ordered TFA yarns for each of them (lilac and frost for the Adhara and garnet for the suncrest), now I just need the patterns (and more time to knit in my life)!
ReplyDeleteNashira is whispering me, saying, "No you don't need to cast on this other shawl first. You know you want to work on me instead." ;)
ReplyDeleteI love them all, but Adhara and Suncrest are vying for lead position in my list.
ReplyDeleteI would definitely start with Solaris. Love it!
ReplyDeleteSorry about the spell check on my phone...I meant to say "Solaria".
DeleteSolaria is calling to me.
ReplyDeleteOh, Nashira, definitely!! Thanks!
