Light and airy, flowing and soft, this simple wrap can be worn as a fairy scarf, or wrapped as a snood. Two designs and two yarn types, each design takes two hanks of yarn. Go for the Double Knitting thickness for a solid wrap or the 4ply version for a lighter more delicate look. They are both made from our MOONSHINE yarns; luxurious alpaca, silk and cashmere - Light Moonshine (dk) or Warm Moonshine (4ply).

I created my design company to challenge the misconception of ‘easy is dull’ – what I create is simple in form, pleasing to knit and a delight to wear. The yarns I sell are luscious and the hand-made original shawl-pins are not only beautiful to look at but are delicate and light so a pleasure to wear. I feel passionate about hand-knitted good design, quality, presented with grace and consideration. Knitting takes time. I honour the skills associated with it and humbly give thanks to our fore-mothers and fathers that have given us so many techniques and knowledge to take this great craft forward.
