Intermediate
Intermediate knitting patterns are aimed at knitters who have a solid understanding of fundamental techniques and are ready for more challenging patterns. Knitters at this level are expected to be comfortable reading patterns, working with a variety of needle types, and executing more advanced techniques such as cables, lace work, detailed construction methods or intarsia. These patterns require reading complex charts or instructions, offering knitters the chance to refine their skills and explore creative, sophisticated designs.
Description
The Moonflower Wrap draws its inspiration from designer Cheryl Toy’s creative journey, in her explorations with a simple leaf motif that evolved to include a vine, and then a flower. This motif repeats to form the beautiful design featured on the border of this wrap. It is an octagon half-circle worked using an 8-point increase strategy. The wrap begins with a garter tab and is then worked in smooth stockinette stitch from the center of the upper edge outward. The lacy pattern is then worked for the wrap border, creating a zigzag hem, and ends with a decorative rolled edge.
Based in the American Deep South, the designer handpicked Luma to make this wrap because of the suitability of the plant-based fibres for warm-weather knitting. This luxurious blend combines organic cotton and linen with silk and fine Merino wool, offering both warmth and breathability.
