Color Block Mohair Wrap
Treat yourself to the experience of knitting this bright and luminescent wrap. Soft, light, and easy to style, this piece will elevate your everyday outfits or add an elegant finishing touch to your formal wear. The mohair wrap is also perfect for traveling as it weighs almost nothing and takes little space in your suitcase.
Have fun playing with vibrant hues or choose a softer palette if brights are not for you. For my sample, I chose two highly saturated colors of mohair and held the yarn double throughout to create the three blocks of color. If you’re not a fan of mohair, you can use any lace-weight yarn held double or a strand of fingering-weight yarn. This design will also look beautiful in one solid color or variegated yarn.
Follow my color block sequence or create your own for a unique piece.
I can’t wait to see your interpretations of this wrap!
