Fair Isle Wrap
This stunning rectangular wrap features a captivating traditional Fair Isle design, expertly crafted in solid colors of high-quality worsted-weight yarn. The background showcases an exquisite blend of variegated worsted-weight yarns that adds depth and dimension to the overall aesthetic.
This lovely accessory is knit in the round, incorporating a clever seven-stitch steek that is carefully cut, folded back, and securely stitched in place before the final blocking step. This technique not only enhances durability but also allows for a polished finish that truly showcases your handiwork.
For those who prefer lighter weight yarns, they can easily be substituted; however, be sure to adjust the stitch and row counts accordingly to accommodate the change in gauge. This flexibility allows for a customized project that suits individual preferences and styles.
While the Poems Silk yarn is unfortunately discontinued, it can still be sourced online with a bit of searching. Alternatively, any other worsted-weight variegated wool yarn in your favorite colors will serve as a suitable substitute! Simply choose some attractive colorways that appeal to your unique taste and creative vision. Keep in mind, you'll need just over 325 yards (approximately 300 meters) of each of the background variegated colorways to complete this beautiful wrap.
This Fair Isle wrap pattern is not only a delightful addition to any wardrobe but also an engaging project for knitters of varying skill levels. Whether you’re looking to enhance your collection of accessories or gift this charming wrap to someone special, this pattern offers both functionality and style, making it a must-have for your knitting repertoire.
