Goddess uses the simplest of slip stitch patterns to optically mix Magic Stripes while creating a lofty fabric reminiscent of thermal shirts. Thermal texture + light airy alpaca combined with a very loose gauge acts like Down to trap warmth inside. Cozy.

Uses just one skein of either Surya or Lakshmi in any Maya Magic Stripe Colorway

Surya ~ lovely, silky, fuzzy and drapey at the same time. I love how this yarn fills in the open spaces of the loose gauge. The fiber holds deep jewel tones very well, with a gentle haze on top.

Lakshmi ~ Goddess knit in Lakshmi is sleek and decadent, with zero Itchiness.

Gauge: very very loose, because each stitch has to span 2 rows.
