Innisfree
Granny stripes get a creative makeover in this casual wrap perfect to wear for drinks at a café after a poetry reading. If color makes your heart beat faster, you’ll enjoy the painterly technique of blending two yarns to create a gradient of color, and it will open up new worlds for your crochet and your approach to colorwork. Innisfree uses the idea of a color wash worked sideways, and each new color is worked for twice as many rows as the previous color. The V-stitch and chain-loop border highlights the effect of color drizzling like paints running off a canvas. Experiment with thread tones to get your favorite progression. Your color options are limitless!
