Three Rivers Asymmetrical Wrap
This pattern was originally published as Knit Purl’s contribution to the 2018 Rose City Yarn Crawl, March 1 – 4, 2018 in Portland, Oregon. Each shop’s pattern(s) will be available free with purchase at that shop during the Rose City Yarn Crawl. All patterns will also be available for download individually or as part of our 2018 Collection: Waterways: 2018 Rose City Yarn Crawl Pattern Collection.
A celebration of some of Portland’s waterways, the Three Rivers wrap flows easily across your needles. Tonal colors mix and mingle like the waters of the Willamette and Sandy rivers where they meet the Columbia, while the rich texture of a broken garter stitch pattern echoes the ripples on the water’s surface. Intuitive to knit, with an elegant bias drape, this asymmetric wrap conveys some of the subtle beauties of the city of rivers.
