I designed Solaria during the final stages of my pregnancy, but Nashira was designed entirely after Lila was born. I can't get as much knitting done as I'd like, but having a newborn just makes me choosier about my projects, and designs.
Tanis of course designed the lovely Adhara and Suncrest:
All of the designs feature a different Tanis Fiber Arts yarn base and colourway. And of course, there are tonnes of colours to choose from!
Let's get to the giveaway! We're giving away to one lucky knitter a copy of the ebook, which includes all 4 patterns. To enter, leave a comment below telling me which pattern you are most excited to knit. Don't forget to leave your email or Ravelry ID, so I can get in touch with you if you win! You can enter until 7:00 a.m. on Friday, June 22nd. I'll announce a winner that Friday afternoon. Good luck!

These are beautiful. I'd like to knit Solaris first - the stitch is really interesting!
I love knitting lace and these are all beautiful.
Beautiful! I'd start with Solaria - I have a thing for cowls, and it is gorgeous! Ravelry ID: meateatingvegan
Suncrest I think, or Adhara. They are all pretty!
I love scarves more than shawls, but I'm on a stripe kick lately, so I'm being drawn to Adhara, especially after looking at some of the test knits with colours which are more contrasting!
Great job on the e-book! All the patterns are gorgeous.

wow, they are all so beautiful. I like the solaris most, it is sunny and breezy, just perfect for summer!

It's hard to choose but Adhara is my favorite.
Congrats on the new collection!
If I have to pick one I will go for Solaria... between the stitch and the color my heart flutters ;-)

Solaris caught my attention first, but I'm also intrigued by the garter stitch in suncrest!
My favorite is suncrest. This patern si so beautiful! *o*
Email is nettemomo at googlemail dot com
They are all quite nice - but I think if I were to choose one to start with it would be Adhara
These patterns are spectacular. The colors you chose for the samples are beautiful. I can't wait to knit Solaria and Suncrest!
cberke on ravelry
Oh, arghh, to choose only one?!
They're all so lovely.
I'd love to win the ebook so I could knit them all, but I think I'd start with Suncrest. I have a much longed for skein of yarn from Wollmeise that would be a perfect fit for it.
I would also like to knit the suncrest firt - it's gorgeous!
Suncrest really appeals to me. Excellent choice of yarn for the design.
Love them all. I'd knit Suncrest first, then Nashira. Gorgeous designs. Thanks for sharing :) Ravelry ID: christinapurls

I'm torn between Nashira and Suncrest. They are both beautiful! RavID mayapof
Honestly, it's a big of a tie for me. I love all of them! I know I'm goIng to end up buying it in the near future. I think if I really had to choose it would be Solaria. It's a very happy looking little accessory. I think I would find a lot of places to wear it.
katherinelynn04 on rav
I love all of these patterns but I think I would start with the Suncrest...in the same colors as Tanis'. I think it's just perfect!
I love Adhara. It looks perfect for my sister-in-law.
They´re all gorgeous but I think I like Suncrest the most.
COngratulations on the new e-book. The patterns are lovely. My favorite would be Suncrest.
Rav: zenitude
They are all beautiful, but I would love to knit Nashira first. Thank you both for creating such fabulous patterns!
Nashira is so elegant, I think that would be my first choice, but all the patterns are lovely and have a varied and interesting look to them.
Oh my, those are all stunning! Especially the suncrest.
What lovely shawls! I think I would knit Suncrest first; I really enjoy the soft curve of a half-circle or half-oval shawl.
I love all of the patterns in this collection! Especially, I love Suncrest, because of the lace and the beautiful color.
Rachel (yarngirl99 on Ravelry)
They're all lovely, but I like Solaria the best.
Tough decision to make, but I think I'd make Solaria first. Lovely collection.
Honestly I want to complete all of them, though I do admit that Suncrest & Nashira really call me. I have the perfect hank for Nashira but I love the stitch pattern & color of Suncrest.

I adore Solaria! I have some green yarn that would look awesome in this pattern (yes, I know it should be yellow...)
Congratulations on all the beautiful patterns! I enjoy your blog very much. I know it can be hard knitting with a newborn, but hang in there because it gets A LOT WORSE before it can get any better :D

How to choose? I love them all! Suncrest jumped out at me first, though, I think because of the color. I'm kathymary on Ravelry.
Very nice patterns! I would knit Nashira first and Adhara second. Ravelryid: ingstitch
/Inger
I love Adhara. It's hard to tell two different shades were used for this one. Also, it'd be a good motivation to try a different cast off method.
All so pretty it's hard to choose just one! Congratulations t both of you for this ebook... Exactly what I was looking for for my summer knitting!
I love Nashira. They are all so pretty though. What a great collection!
Solaria and Suncrest are my favorites! :) Lovely collection! (I'm Katinka on Ravelry.)
I love this collection :-) I've faved Adhara, Solaria and Suncrest so far. They are beautiful designs. I need to cast off a couple projects then hopefully I can cast on Solaria.

I love them all but I saw Suncrest posted on Ravelry and feel in love with it. Color way...Lemon Grass or Lilac or Pink Grapefruit...So many decisions!
Ravelry ID DLand1024
It was a toss-up between Solaria and Suncrest, but I know I'll be knitting Solaria not only for myself but as Christmas and wedding presents! The perfect smaller cowl that will go with anything!
For me it's a tie between Adhara and Nashira. I'd have to make both!

I'm VERY excited to knit Solaris!
ooh, they're all gorgeous! but i think nashira is the one i'm most excited to knit. (and my ravelry name is juniperjune!)

I'm head-over-heels for the solaria! just love it!!

What a wonderful collection - I am so addicted to shawls at the moment so I think I would want to start with Suncreast. Congratulations on a great collection.
What a fantastic little collection! I am particularly drawn to Suncrest... in that colour! motan on rav
Congratulations on your very beautiful patterns. I love them all, but Suncrest is my favourite. I've just finished blocking a lacy shawl, and my fingers are itching for another one.
Oooh I love Solaria--it looks like a really versatile cowl!
I like Adhara and Suncrest since I'm a shawl knitter and one looks perfect for variegated! My rav name is MindYerKnP.
I'll have to go with Nashira! As you already know from my comment on Ravelry, I think it is elegant and beautiful.
I love Solaria so much! I already have a yarn in mind.

First up would be Solaria! I think it would be lovely in a bright colour like Jewel or Pink Grapefruit. Nice and summery!
They're all beautiful. But I'd probably start with Adhara first. I'm a sucker for two color shawl patterns. Congrats! - Clotho30 on ravelry
Hi Julie,
I like Solaria best. Seems the stitch pattern is special.
Thanks for the opportunity to win an ebook!

ravelry - Trixie98023
I think I'll have to pick Solaria...I actually have Tanis yarn in my stash for it!
I don't even know how to choose one to start with!! Just lovely!
The Nashira really speaks to me--it is something about the feathery quality of the shawl ends, and the almost Art Deco look of the overall pattern. I think I also just really like wearing rectangular shawls! But Suncrest is a very close second and I love the way Tanis is wearing it in the photographs. This entire collection is a real achievement--bravo!
Love Adhara and want to start knitting it NOW! All the other patterns are beautiful
Clare
Clukacs@zing-net.ca
solaria for sure! :) raineoc@yahoo.com
They are all gorgeous but I would love to knit Nashira. I've never done lace in my life and this piece doesn't scare me like all the others do... I think that's a good sign!
I'm PprmntMochaMama on Ravelry or my email is my profile here.
I'm so excited about this collection! I particularly like Nashira (and I can't believe you designed it with a wee one just arrived!).
Wow- they're all so pretty, I don't know if I could pick just one. Thanks so much for the awesome give-away. Rav username: gnomesbeatfaeries
I love all of them! I'm torn between Solaria and Suncrest for my absolute favorite!
They are all beautiful, but I think I like suncrest first.
They are all gorgeous, but I really love Nashira - the lacy leaves, the colour, everything about it.
The Adhara shawl is lovely. Although I would probably knit all of them.

I love them all, but the Suncrest really catches my eye. RavID: Tanknit
COngratulations on a gorgeous collaboration! And I overly impressed at your designing since Lila was born! I love Solaria the best, it would be an instant cast on for me!
I love the cowl, but I think I mostly love the colour. I could probably knit all of the designs in that colour.
Nashira is beautiful! I personally find that a rectangular shawl keeps my attention focused while knitting. Maybe because I have short rows to knit? They also make for a perfect project to knit at work when I have to drop it on my lap at a moment's notice.
Love them all! Solaria is my favorite of the four.
They are all beautiful. I have been craving shawls lately. I would love to make a suncrest!
I'm loving the Suncrest!
c_mcmullan(at)hotmail(dot)com
I'd probably start with Adhara - I've been on a multi-color kick recently.
I just love Suncrest! I can't figure out if it's the colour I'm drawn to first or the lovely edging.
Solaria! It'll be lots of fun to knit, and a welcome reminder of summer in the grey and dreary fall/winter/spring months
Adhara, for sure. I just received my order of Blue Label Cobalt and Mallard, planning to make a shawlette for each of my daughters for their birthdays (one in July and one in August). Now I have a change in plans: I see that Adhara takes two different colors, so I would make one with Cobalt for the body and Mallard as the accent for Daughter #1 and then the second with Mallard as the body and Cobalt as the accent for Daughter #2. Just need to order another skein of Mallard when I get the e-book and I'll be set!
Thannks for the great designs!

It's difficult to choose, but Adhara, maybe. In Rav mintui
They are all so beautifull! But given that I have a love for cowls and have been thinking about a lacy one I can wear through Summer (what? Summer? We are skipping that season over here in Belgium this year ...), so Solaria is the one I would cast on first. But again, I would like to knit them all!
(I'm Emily37 on Ravelry)
Gorgeous patterns! I love them all, but for me the best is Solaria - so perfect for the summer :)
Justyna (justyska.blog@gmail.com)
Suncrest - its shown in red tones. I cannot resist red (nor can I resist green).
Of course they are all beautiful and I would love to knit all of them but I think Adhara would be the first one that I would knit.

koreakiwi on Ravelry: I love them all! Really lovely designs...I want to knit Nashira first. There's something rather deco about the design :)
For sure,Adhara is the one that caught my eye! catch me on ravelry as dreamvoyageur.
I love the Solaria. It's totally something I would wear! Stasiamb(at)gmail(dot)com.
Nashira...no,solaria...no, nashira....both beautiful and so ME! Ok, final decision....nashira :)
Hmmm- tough choice, but I'd probably start with Suncrest. Very nice all around!
I can't wait to start Nashira! I usually knit easy patterns, but that one is so beautiful that I'm ready to up my knitting level and take it on! :)
So hard to choose! Nashira.
I love Adhara because I keep wanting to knit a romantic shawl for myself (though I would definitely knit two more, surely)!

they are all so pretty,and oh-so-challenging for a beginning lace knitter like me,with only a few easy projects under my belt.i think i would be up to tackling suncrest for my next lace shawl project,though.it is so colorful,and looks like the easiest to construct.thanks for your generous giveaway!
Beautiful would love to knit these the worst part which one to do first?

I am just in love with the solaria. I LOVE cowls but all of mine are heavier wintery ones. It'd be great to have something lighter and with such a beautiful pattern. Maybe something I could knit up before the baby comes in Aug :-)
I love the versatility of the Solaria, and am excited to knit in a colour I don't usually wear to add some pop to my wardrobe!
These are all gorgeous! I especially love Solaria, because I'm a cowl fanatic, and I think it looks like the perfect accessory for summer!
These are great! I would love to knit Solaria first.
(RavID Eskyria)
They're all beautiful, but I would love Solaria. It's so summery and just looking at it makes me happy!
They are all lovely but I really adore Solaria. I would love to knit it for a girlfriend who is getting married in Florida later this year!
I love them all! But I LOOOOOVE, love, love Adhara. Beauty!
