NOËLLE - an extra large, soft and flowy triangle wrap, perfect for the Holiday Season

The design is inspired by a gingerbread house; the top section resembles the shingles of the roof, the middle section represents icicles hanging off the roof and the bottom section is the blanket of snow the house stands on.

For a little extra interest the spine is a 4 stitch cable and in the original the edges are softened by a 5-stitch i-cord. The pattern doesn’t prescribe any specific edging, that is left up to the tastes of the knitter.

The pattern for Noëlle includes:

  • both charts AND written instructions for each section separately
  • helpful notes where necessary
  • tally-lists with stitch counts per row to check if you’re on track
  • a link to a Google Sheet with those tally-lists and a bonus Yarn Chicken Calculator, to determine when to start binding off. Note that to use the interactive tally-lists, you do need to have your own Google Drive.

Happy Holidays!
