Flutter Wrap
Now Available!
Designed to look and feel like a well loved blanket… the one you grab for when you seek the comfort of something familiar, like a gentle hug from a dear friend.
Flutter Wrap is an asymmetrical-triangle shaped wrap (shawl) worked from one point to the other. Adorned with eyelets & squishy texture throughout, Flutter Wrap is delicately cozy… enjoyable to knit and to wear.
This pattern was designed in collaboration with Lavender Lune Yarn Co. in honor of Black Maternal Health week as a fundraiser for the Black Home Birth Initiative. Through Sunday, April 17th kits are available, for yarn & pattern together, through Lavender Lune Yarn Co.

Part II of this pattern is worked with one strand of Yarn A (Main Color) held together with one strand of Yarn B (Color 2). Alternatively, a single strand of DK weight yarn could be substituted.

Pattern Construction
Flutter Wrap begins with only a handful of stitches. Increases are worked during Part I to the “center drop” length. Part II of this pattern, (the decrease section) decreases twice as fast as Part I increased, creating the asymmetrical shape.
This is an advanced-beginner level pattern.
