  • This is a PDF knitting pattern.

    The Brioripple Wrap features wavy bands of two-color brioche and reverse stockinette stripes. The background of each brioche section features two strands of West Wool Glowhair held together in the same color for a soft and fluffy effect.

    The foreground brioche colors and reverse stockinette stitch stripes are knitted with one strand of fingering weight wool. This project is a great stashbuster to use leftover fingering weight yarns or mini skeins. Feel free to customize your brioche color combinations however you like as you create a uniquely striped fabric. The size of this wrap is easy to customize. Simply bind off early after any brioche section for a shorter length or continue to knit the wavy pattern repeats as recommended for a long dramatic wrap.

    The sample features fingering weight for the MC (main color) foreground brioche sections and the AC (accent color) reverse stockinette stitch stripes. Two strands of the same color of lace weight mohair silk are held together for the CC (contrast color) background brioche sections. You can use fingering weight yarns for all the colors or hold two strands of lace weight mohair silk together for the CC background brioche sections to create a version like the photographed sample.
