The Penelope Wrap combines textures and colours to make a striped symphony that cascades around the neck. Combine two skeins of fingering weight yarn (one tonal, one variegated) and a luxurious skein of suri alpaca silk lace (or mohair silk if that’s your jam!) in a coordinating colour for a splashy knit. The different yarn textures play against the different stitch textures to keep it an interesting knit both visually and in terms of making. Neatly trimmed in i-cord, the parallelogram Penelope Wrap will keep you warm and stylish.
