This modern wrap’s clean geometry is highlighted by transparent stripping. Tweed Silk Cloud and Lunar are paired in alternating bands, providing a contrast between solid and ethereal. Its versatile triangular shape provides a variety of styling options; drape it across the shoulders for a traditional look, or wrap closely around the neck as a scarf.

Umbra is worked in a striped pattern with Lunar and Tweed Silk Cloud held together, alternating with a single strand of Tweed Silk Cloud, to create a transparent effect. The triangular wrap has a lace-like edge that is created at the same time the body of the wrap is knitted. Both yarns contain a high silk content and relax after washing. For this reason, your swatch must be washed and blocked to accurately measure gauge.
