The D’Amour Wrap is perfect for the knitter interested in a stranding adventure. The entire wrap is mapped out in a series of detailed charts to navigate the journey. At first glance, the charts appear symmetrical, but upon further exploration you’ll see that each side has its own variations, making it unique. Using the technique of locked floats (page 11) makes both the front and back beautiful. Once the stranded portion is complete, an applied I-cord edge finishes the wrap.

Don’t let the large charts stop you from tackling this gorgeous piece! Remember what I said earlier about the difference between difficult and time-consuming? Filled with geometric and stylistic designs, this wrap promises to be a showstopper.
