New Arrival Charlotte

Sometimes all that is needed is a simple loop around the shoulders to keep the chill away.

Introducing Charlotte, a body-hugging wrap trimmed with picot at her edges. Night and Day, a 2-stranded, 6-stitch by 6-row color pattern, is worked on the outside, and continues its background color on the inside as self-lining. This design is worked bottom-up and in-the-round, from Provisional cast on to Kitchener join, resulting in a double layer of knitted fabric that is rich and dense. Youll find my Charlotte Wrap to be fun to make, super stylish (right?), and rather romantic to wear (I’d say!). Enjoy!

Skills required: Provisional cast on, circular knitting, 2-stranded colorwork, decreasing (k2tog), increasing (yo), and Kitchener stitch with waste yarn for grafting.
