Inspired by the modern quilt movement, this generously-sized rectangular wrap is a play on both color and geometry. Long rectangles break apart into shorter units as they approach the center of the wrap. The two gradient sets of colors begin with their darkest colors at opposite ends and fade to their lightest colors down the length of the wrap.

Worked in one piece in easy garter stitch (not a purl stitch anywhere), this design is truly unisex. But, if it’s for a guy, call it a scarf.
