What's On Our Needles

 

Pattern: Brioripple Wrap by Stephen West


Yarn: Smalliday Kit by Emma's Yarn



From Ravelry.com:

The Brioripple Wrap features wavy bands of two-color brioche and reverse stockinette stripes. The background of each brioche section features two strands of West Wool Glowhair held together in the same color for a soft and fluffy effect. The foreground brioche colors and reverse stockinette stitch stripes are knitted with one strand of fingering weight wool. This project is a great stashbuster to use leftover fingering weight yarns or mini skeins.


Feel free to customize your brioche color combinations however you like as you create a uniquely striped fabric. The size of this wrap is easy to customize. Simply bind off early after any brioche section for a shorter length or continue to knit the wavy pattern repeats as recommended for a long dramatic wrap.
