Morvoren Wrap
Introducing the Morvoren Wrap, a stunning rectangular piece inspired by the enchanting legend of the Mermaid of Zennor and the intricately carved wooden bench found in Zennor church. This beautiful wrap is not just a stylish accessory; it's a celebration of folklore and craftsmanship that every knitter will love.
Designed specifically for fingering to heavy laceweight yarn, the Morvoren Wrap requires only one skein each of contrasting colors, preferably in solid or tonal hues, to ensure that the textured stitch patterns truly stand out. Our sample was created using Norne Yarn's luxurious Merino/Yak/Silk singles (120g / 480m per skein), featuring one skein each of the captivating colors Gullinbuste and Midgardsormr.
This enchanting wrap features edges in a single color, showcasing a mirrored motif design that elegantly represents rope cables, shimmering mermaid scales, and the mesmerizing mermaid's mirror. The colors harmoniously blend in the central syncopated brioche section, which mimics the movement of interlocking waves. In a unique twist, this section is worked in a single pass, breaking away from the traditional brioche knitting method of "color A, slide, color B, turn." To make it even easier for you, the pattern includes a comprehensive tutorial video illustrating how to achieve this technique seamlessly.
In addition to the stunning design, the Morvoren Wrap also includes width modification suggestions and length calculations, ensuring a perfect fit for every knitter's preference. Whether you prefer detailed written instructions or visual charts, you'll find full step-by-step guidance included in this pattern, making it accessible to knitters of all skill levels.

Perfect for gifting or keeping for yourself, this wrap is sure to become a cherished addition to your wardrobe. Start your knitting adventure today with this captivating and free pattern!
