Repp
Inspired by the classic prep school necktie, Repp sports raised diagonal lines for simple texture on a stockinette background. The narrower scarf is knit at a finer gauge, while the wrap is knit more loosely for a flowy, multi-season look.
Both the scarf and the wrap are worked flat. One strand of Pebble and one strand of Lunar are held together throughout. A seed stitch border is carried up the edges, while the diagonal lines of the main body of the piece are achieved using slipped cable stitches. Pattern includes both written instructions and a chart.
