This listing is for the Bling-Bling Wrap pattern.

B is for Bling-Bling…Bling-Bling is the Path B option in Ambah’s recent This or That MKAL, a design where knitters can choose between 6 Path A or Path B options, either knitting a straight path or mix and match between the two. Now available as 4 stand alone patterns, the path A Actinotus Shawl or Wrap and the path B versions; Bling-Bling Shawl or Wrap.
Can’t decide? Then perhaps the original This or That pattern is for you, find the Shawl here and the Wrap here for the combined A & B pattern.
Find all 6 patterns here.

Knit yourself some bling that will draw many admirers. The Bling-Bling Wrap is a project of many diamonds, combined to create a beautifully ornate piece you’ll treasure for years to come. Savour the details as the stripes morph into diamonds incorporating both mosaic and lace knitting techniques.
Choose two strongly contrasting colours for the mosaic sections and either use the same colour for the lace or have fun and introduce a third colour into your project.
The resulting rhomboid wrap is easy to wear and will make a stunning addition to your wardrobe.

The pattern includes both written and charted instructions.
