The Kelland Wrap pairs a smoothly shifting gradient with a high-contrast solid to make a visually striking piece. Its repeating, easily memorized elements of texture and lace make it an engaging and relaxing knit — you’ll find yourself always wanting to work through “just one more color!”

Kelland’s long, trapezoidal shape lets it be wrapped a myriad of ways, and Marianated Yarns’ MCN blend yarn makes it block and drape beautifully.

This pattern contains both fully charted and written instructions, in two separate PDFs.
