Flames, feathers, or flower petals -- you decide. This wrap is a great way to show off your hand-dyed yarn, especially the fire-themed StevenBe colorways of Woolen Boon Boon Classic for the Minnesota Yarn Shop Hop 2018. You’ll use two different short row methods to create the flames/feathers/petals and background color. Don’t be intimidated by the pattern length -- writing up the varying stitch counts for the short rows takes up a lot of space, but it’s easy to get into a rhythm.
