Soft Stripes Wrap
With Novella’s mesmerizing pools of color under a wash of glowing Tussock, our Soft Stripes Wrap pattern tells a story… One of beauty, inspiration, and the pleasure of simple knitting.

You knit this wrap with our Soft Stripes Wrap Bundle, all in easy stockinette, holding two strands throughout, just Tussock on the ends and Tussock with Novella for the rest.

This gorgeous swath of fabric is all about the yarn. The shifting colors of self-striping Novella will keep you enraptured. The colors stripe and blend, flowing into one another as you anticipate what comes next.

And you’ll love the gentle watercolor-y beauty Tussock adds. Its lustrous color is vibrant on the ends and merges with Novella’s dynamic hues in the middle, bringing the pieces of the tale together.

The fibers of these two yarns are an exquisite mix. They both have the strength and radiance of mulberry silk, while Novella adds extra fine merino for bounce and body, and Tussock’s super fine kid mohair lends a gorgeous halo to the fabric’s surface. Altogether, an incredibly soft and lovely combination.

Our wrap pairs Tussock’s Bright Thistle with Novella’s vibrant Goji Berry, but find the two that tell your story… You have nine Soft Stripes Wrap Bundles to choose from!
