Bargello Aurora Wrap, Cowl & Scarf
Inspired by the distinctive zigzag stitch patterns used in Bargello tapestry work, Kath Andrews has designed this spectacular wrap with a mesmerising stripe pattern and attractive point details along the edges. Her Bargello stitch pattern uses some unusual decrease and increase methods, such as increasing four stitches in the same stitch. Kath’s design showcases a beautiful hand-dyed BFL yarn from Cat and Sparrow, and is worked in five complementary colours.
The wrap was first published in The Knitter, issue 180. The individual pattern has been updated in 2024 to add cowl and scarf options.
