Midwinter Magic Wrap

The Midwinter Magic Wrap is designed to bring a touch of colorful whimsy to the cold, gray winter. Using sparkly yarn and a vibrant palette, you can banish the winter blues with every stitch. Whether you want to channel twilight in a frozen forest, a candlelight winter night, or the warmth of a winter sunset, this shawl is for you.

It is knitted sideways using a 'snowdriftstitch'—a texture that is easy to master but interesting enough to keep you engaged (with a video link). The pattern is adaptable to several yarn choices and includes three specific color arrangements, along with instructions for improvising your own unique design. The Design Modification Section includes several yarn possibilities, including how to use 3 different mini-skein sets (12x80yd, a 7x133yd, or 10x80yd) for the contrast colors. Specific vendors for the yarns used are included in the pattern.
