Made with a double strand of a favorite lace-weight mohair and silk blend, you'll have fun playing with color, mixing with ombre shading, or crossing the color wheel for graphic punch. For the scarf, we mixed four solid colors - two at a time - to create shaded color blocking. For the wrap, we played with four softly self-striping colorways - sometimes with themselves, sometimes with each other - so no two pieces will ever be alike. You'll just have to make another one.

The finished product was wonderful! I plan on making more for gifts for next year. I think it would be great to use up some of the leftover skeins of fingering yarn or maybe even sport yarn.
Both my mom and I knit this pattern. I've done socks before, and found the pattern extremely easy and pleasing. She's never knit socks, or with such small needles, but still found the pattern easy to follow.
