Willamette Wrap
From the pattern description:
Inspired by a particularly beautiful cloudy day here in the Willamette Valley in Oregon, I chose a creamy color of an alpaca-silk blend yarn for this garter-stitch cardigan that drapes at an angle when worn. The collar is needle felted in layers with merino-silk roving and then closed with a pin.
Notions:
- Stitch holders or waste yarn
- Tapestry needle
- Blocking wires
- Louet Merino/Silk Top (80% merino, 20% silk): .5 ounces natural
- Clover felting tool
- Two or three 36-gauge felting needles (note from author: While strong, these needles do tend to break, so it’s a good idea to have extras on hand.)
- 9 x 12 x 2” foam felting block
- Decorative pin for closure
Includes construction schematic
