Nivalis wrap

The full size wrap has a generously wide wingspan and enough depth for a comfortable wrapping around the body. The long ends are easy to tie in a knot behind your back. The wrap consists of two halves, both worked from the middle towards the ends. There is also an option to knit one half only, add tassels and use it as a triangular shawl.

The wrap is knit in garter stitch with two (or three) sections of inlay colourwork, which makes it a quick and easy beginner friendly project and a perfect introduction into inlay colourwork.

Yarn for each half:

MC: ca. 584 m (639 yds) of any other sport/DK weight yarn or combination of yarns to match the gauge.

CC: ca. 38 m (42 yds) of any aran/bulky weight yarn or combination of yarns to achieve a beautifully dense colourwork and ca. 75 m (82 yds) of lighter weight held double.

Gauge:

20 sts & 30 rows in 10 cm (4 in) on 4.0 mm (US 6) needles measured over garter stitch worked flat after blocking.
