It started with a single 20g skein of yarn from Skein Queen and her British Wildlife monthly subscription. Then came the raindrops to add interest and texture combined with an i-cord edge. The design just grew and here it is, a wrap, a scarf, a shawl…whatever you want to class it it warms the neck with simple garter stitch that shows off the beautiful colours.

Skill Level
You’ll be able to knit and purl. Increases are knitted to the front and back of stitches with decreases a simple knit two together. The i-cord edge is fully explained

Materials
4ply yarn - I used nine 20g skeins with 30g of the raindrop blue colour. This would work beautifully in a single colour with a contrast for the raindrop rows.

180g / 420 meters / 460 yards in the main colour

30g / 120 meters / 130 yards in the contrast colour

3.5mm straight needles

Optional: one stitch marker for the i-cord edge

Measurements
