About:
This lovely soft wrap is knit up in luxury merino silk. It’s knit on the bias giving it excellent shape and drape. It’s textured design uses a range of knit, slipped, and purl stitches. It’s a modern design using 3 contrasting colours, so you can make it subtle or really pop! This garment is long, so can be worn as a scarf or shawl style wrap. The colours I chose remind me of an escape to the seaside, I used Wild Dyer Yarns, Sea inspired colourways.
