Desert ripple wrap is a versatile convertible accessory that can be worn as a wrap/scarf/shawl, poncho, infinity loop cowl! It really is the only accessory you will need:) and don’t forget the cute buttons:)

Due to its versatility, Desert Ripple is also part of the More than a Loop ebook!

It uses 2 colors to create a melting fading effect of ripples flowing gently across the fabric. The classic Old Shale pattern gets an update in this modern wrap. The wrap starts and ends with just a couple of stitches(no long cast on and no bind off!)

I used Ritual Dyes Crone - Rachel’s color magic made this wrap shine! and….the colors were prophetic because I ended up visiting the Mojabe desert right after finishing the wrap:)
