Crossroads Wrap
Knit yourself a colorful and cozy wrap without all the fuss of traditional colorwork! This wrap utilizes four color coordinating skeins of Hue + Me - a soft wool and acrylic blend yarn with a gorgeous color palette. It is worked flat, mostly in color blocks, and features surface crochet for the vertical stripes which are added onto the finished piece. Video instruction is included to demonstrate how to surface crochet and pick up and knit stitches along the edges.
