RiverRay Wrap

RiverRay is a large two-skein, rectangular wrap. The idea for this wrap was to use two sock-blank fades which both start off dark in colour but slowly transition to the natural yarn colour as you knit them. The wrap starts by casting on the first colour at the darkest end and then knitting on the bias which creates this lovely horizontal stockinette and lace wave pattern.

Instead of using sock blanks, you could use 2 x skeins of 4ply sock yarn at 400-425m per skein, or 9-10 mini skeins at 20g / 85m per skein. The wrap would work beautifully with 2 x sets of gradient mini skeins fading into each other.

I used mini-skeins for the pink and blue version shown in the pics. You can also see that the wrap also doubles up as a lovely scarf or a big, cozy cowl!

Whatever yarns you decide to use, the end result is a large, versatile wrap or scarf that will keep you as warm as a ray of sunshine wherever you go.

The pattern contains written and charted instructions and has been test knitted.
