Choose five colors of fingering weight yarn and fade them from light to dark with this wide wrap. This textured fabric is knitted with the fascinating dip stitch technique. This elegant stitch pattern forms a biased shape with beautiful diagonal lines. The elongated stitches formed by the dip stitch form lovely little waves in the fabric that look like shells or scales. You can easily customize the length of this wrap by simply binding off early for a shorter size or knit using all your yarn for the longest size. This pattern includes a video tutorial demonstrating the dip stitch technique. Cast on and learn something new!
