Bambara Wrap

Introducing the stunning Bambara Wrap, an exquisite knitting project inspired by a serene walk through the local bush. The captivating greens of the landscape were beautifully transformed into vibrant yarn by Primrose Yarn Co, who expertly crafted remarkable colors to reflect the natural beauty encountered during my forest excursion.

Bambara is not just a wrap; it is a generously-sized masterpiece knit on the bias, featuring simple shaping techniques and alternating sections of delicate lace and cozy garter stitch. The design evokes the imagery of music, weaving colors and patterns together like the layers of a harmonious melody, reminiscent of the iconic sound of The Cure’s "A Forest." This wrap serves as the perfect opportunity to unleash your creativity and play with color! You can choose a 3-skein gradient paired with a coordinating contrast color for a stunning effect, or you might opt for a fun, bold look by mixing speckles and solids in four vibrant shades. Alternatively, if you prefer a more understated aesthetic, keep it elegant and subtle with neutral solid colors.
