Inseparable duo as this Bach’s work is…
Inspired from fish net spools on these trawlers I saw last summer in Vendée.
Very easy to knit, Toccata et Fugue are 2 different rectangular wraps to wear like a wrap, a scarf…It’s easy to adapt the number of strips, as you want !
Very different effect, depending on the yarn, on the row rotation.
Toccata is a very light and smooth one.
Fugue, denser and longer, looks like a natural cane work.
Only 2 differents rows, alternatively. The right and wrong sides have the same look.

TOCCATA:
Yarn : Titicaca Holst garn, 100 % pure thin alpaca (100 % alpaca), 50 g = 400 m, 2 skeins (65 g needed) in frv. Galaxy-lot 208553.

Needles: US 7 (4.5 mm)) for the body of the wrap.
