Elementary Wrap In Season Alpaca
An Elementary Wrap is our go-to project for pure yarn joy! When a yarn, a yarn combo, or a color has gripped us and won’t let go, we cast on for a simple swath of stockinette stitch and indulge in our obsession.
Currently on our mind? Season Alpaca in this insanely gorgeous Sapphire Blue. As if drawn from a deep sea abyss, this color has a mysterious and earthy richness, radiating its own inner beauty like a truly precious gem.
Season Alpaca itself is just as incredible as this color. It has the beautiful drape of 100% baby alpaca, but in a sport weight, not the heaviness. Its warmth and softness, beauty and elegance make it the perfect vehicle for an Elementary Wrap.
In Sapphire Blue, or any of Season Alpaca‘s other nineteen colors, enjoy the treat of just sitting back and knitting!
Yarn lovers, if you adore the yarn used in this project, you’ll love exploring all of our other yarn collections!

Only available here at Purl Soho’s online yarn store, where every skein is created with care and your creativity in mind!
