Looking for texture and warmth? This cosy DK weight wrap offers both. Alchemy explores the open star stitch using two colours. It creates a rich texture and is a fun way to play with colours.

You only use one colour at a time, so it’s easy and entertaining to knit. Seed stitch frames on both ends enhance the cosy look.
