Product Description
Fairisle should be worked in stranded method and long floats of more than 3 sts should be ‘caught’ to avoid large loops on the back side (WS). The pattern includes charts for the fair isle sections of the wrap.
The wrap is knitted flat with 3mm (2.5US) needles in stockinette (knit on right side, purl on wrong side) except for the moss (seed) stitch borders. It is worked as two identical pieces from the right and left far ends to the centre. To finish, the two pieces are grafted together using Kitchener Stitch to create a seamless join. Other joining methods can be used however Kitchener Stitch is recommended as this will create a seamless join.
The wrap is knit with fingering weight yarn, 4 skeins of Mechita, Malabrigo (100% merino wool, fingering weight), 100 grams/420 yards (384 meters) in:
- 2 skeins (768m (840 yards) total) of Polar Morn
- 1.5 skeins (576m (630 yards) total) of Sheri
