Fun wrap in Modern Cotton

August 01, 2015 1 min read 2 Comments

I love Modern Cotton.  It has a great silky feel, generous yardage, and an expansive palette.  Plus it's really affordable,  Lots of you have knit beautiful garments in Modern Cotton, and you probably have several half skeins of it languishing in your stash.  If so, then I have the perfect solution.  

This wrap takes between 30 and 75 yards of 7 different colors.  Designer, Benjamin Matthews, has chosen the colors of the rainbow, and paired them with a cloudy blue, but you could use whatever Modern Cotton colors you have on hand.  Choose two skeins of an 8th color that brings them all together and get knitting.  It's a simple garter stitch pattern with one increase every other row.  Perfect TV knitting!  The pattern is free through today.
