Iona Hap

Worked top down from a garter stitch tab, this easy to follow pattern has just enough going on to keep a knitter’s interest without presenting challenge.

Increased stitches are cleverly incorporated into the textured pattern so that they can’t be seen and the gentle central spine eyelets create a slight crescent shape which gently hugs your shoulders in wear.

The project grows quickly on 6mm (US 10) needles and can be worked out of just three 100gm skeins of this lovely worsted weight Merino/Yak blend yarn, producing a surprisingly large hap which is pretty without being fussy. It is terrifically warm but has a lovely light drape - a perfect fabric for a year-round wrap!

The pattern is designed to be printed on both sides of a single A4 sheet of paper which can then be folded to produce a handy leaflet for your project bag. Short and easy to follow, it includes a border chart to support the written instructions.
