Product Description
Designed to increase the already decadent squishiness of some lofty handspun angora-merino wool yarn, this brioche scarf is addictive once you get it started! Both sides of the fabric look equally good, making this reversible fabric ideal for a scarf or wrap. The larger wrap size envelopes the shoulders in a soft, squishy fabric. The brioche stitch pattern reminds me of broadleaf plantain, an edible wild food with purported healing properties.
Rated as an intermediate knit by test knitters Jenny, Carol, Darite & Suguna.
