Bosque Wrap
The Bosque Wrap is an elegant and versatile bias wrap that combines playful stripes with a surprisingly easy leafy lace design. The name “Bosque” is derived from the Portuguese word for woods, reflecting the natural beauty that inspired this stunning knit. Ideal for knitters of all skill levels, this pattern invites creativity and texture to your wardrobe.
To achieve the delicate lace effect characteristic of the Bosque Wrap, the pattern requires two different yarn weights: the main color in fingering weight and a contrasting color in lace weight. This unique combination allows for a beautiful interplay of textures that will make your wrap stand out.
Yarn Requirements:
For the main color, you’ll need one skein of Miss Babs Caroline, a luxurious blend of 70% Superwash Merino Wool, 20% Cashmere, and 10% Nylon, offering a total of 400 yards (365 meters) per 3.2 oz skein. The main color featured in our sample is thoughtfully shown in Together, perfect for a chic, contemporary look.
Alternatively, if you prefer to use your own yarn, you will need approximately 240 yards (220 meters) of fingering weight yarn that complements your design vision.
For the contrasting color, consider using one skein of Miss Babs Moonglow, which is a sumptuous blend of 72% Kid Mohair and 28% Silk. Each 1.7 oz skein provides 435 yards (400 meters) of luxury. The contrasting color showcased in our example is Aubergine, adding rich depth and sophistication to your wrap.
If you choose to explore other options, you will need approximately 420 yards (390 meters) of lace weight yarn that adds a perfect pop to your design.
Whether you're looking for a cozy wrap to keep warm on a cool evening or a stunning accessory to elevate your style, the Bosque Wrap is an exquisite choice. Embrace the joy of knitting with this engaging pattern and create a piece that you will treasure for years to come.
