Note:
This wrap uses the intarsia method of knitting two yarns simultaneously to achieve the 2 colour lace and cable patt. To ensure a hole does not develop between the yarns, when you have knitted in one shade and before starting with the new shade wrap the yarns around each other on the WS of work before knitting in the next colour.
