Magic Three-Yarn Wrap & Throw Using Fleece Artist & Hand Maiden
The Design
Our lengthwise Magic Three-Yarn Wrap pattern lends itself perfectly to this mix of three very different hand-painted yarns. Each has a unique texture and each fiber takes color in its own special way. And while the knit-knit-knitting is super simple (you alternate single rows of three yarns which magically appear right where you need them!), the result is a complex, integrated fabric that is infinitely more beautiful than the sum of its parts.
We've cross-pollinated Fleece Artist Slubby Blue (a thick-and-thin roving style wool) and Curly Locks (a lustrous kid mohair blend boucl̩e) with Hand Maiden Maiden Hair (a shimmering silk wrapped with mohair). The mother/daughter artists from each company have dyed their yarns in the same colorways for us, each with her own nuances. The match-ups are gorgeous!
And, while you're here, grab a copy of the pattern above—and the addendum for the throw, if you'd like.
