Experience Level: Intermediate
Striped triangles come together to create a bold oversized chevron pattern in this fun-to-wear wrap. The Prismatic Wrap uses three colors of fingering weight yarn. One color dances throughout triangles made in the two main colors. The design of this piece lends itself well to high contrast hand dyed yarns and self-stripe yarns. Lightweight, soft, and colorful – the perfect accessory and an incredibly interesting knit.
Construction Details
This wrap is made modularly with 4 triangles. Two identical triangles are worked separately and then joined together to create the third and fourth triangles. A border is picked up along the edge of the wrap and worked afterwards.
