The Ways of Water Wrap is inspired by the dance of waves crashing upon the shore, with its unique stitch pattern mimicking the ebb and flow of ocean currents. The gradient hues, ranging from deep oceanic blues to shimmering shallows, mirror the myriad colors of the sea at different depths. This interplay of color is achieved by alternating between solid and striped sections, while knitting a zig-zag pattern of eyelets and garter stitch.

Designed in The Fibre Co.’s Acadia—a rich blend of Merino, baby alpaca, and silk noil—this wrap promises a delicate drape and sumptuous texture, feeling heavenly against the skin. Made with five shades of Acadia, the Ways of Water Wrap serves as a delightful project for confident beginners and seasoned knitters, bringing vibrant oceanic inspiration to every wardrobe.

The Almanac Series III
The Almanac Series is an ongoing collection celebrating each month of the year with a Yarn of the Month. It is based on the original farmer’s Almanac, a nature-inspired guide to the seasons. In our first two Almanacs, we looked to land with our theme of herbalism. Then to the skies, with our theme of astronomy. Now we look to the seas.

Our third Almanac Series is inspired by the oceans to acknowledge the importance of maintaining a balanced and thriving ocean ecosystem. The moodiness of the deep ocean, the chill of polar seas, the patterns and rhythm of winter swells, and the great migrations of sea birds were some of the inspirations behind this Almanac Series.

We invite you to feel inspired by the high seas and explore this theme with us.
