A pattern for a cardigan without the seams, a shawl with a collar. Warm, versatile and fun.
A celebration of Ginger Twist’s tenth anniversary, the Tenfold Wrap is a large draping wrap that sits securely on the shoulders thanks to the ‘collar’ or neck slot.
Groups of ten eyelets travel from the front edges across the wrap to meet at the centre back. Cables run up the outside edges and a garter stitch border finishes the edges as you knit.
The Tenfold Wrap is designed to showcase Ginger’s Hand dyed sport weight yarns. Go for the crisp but breezy Pin Up Sport or the lusciously drapy Shine on Sport. Your choice of colour and yarn can make this a statement piece or a wardrobe staple. The optional fringe tassels add flare, try them in different colours for even more fun!
