Notes

There is no other way to put it- this piece is a showstopper. Knit in soft, drapey alpaca, it’s a dream to have wrapped around you.

We love the sophisticated contrast of grey on grey, though this would look beautiful with a pop of colour too.

Skills required for this project are Mosaic Knitting (working with two colours, but not at the same time), Working from charts, German Short Rows, Lateral braid, and Two-stitch I-cord bind off. Guidance for these techniques are given in the pattern.

We made a little change to our project: We knit 2 rows in CC before starting the bind off to give a stronger looking dark edge.

If you’d like to embark on this beautiful project, you can see our full selection of Drops Alpaca on our website to get started.
