Winter Rose Wrap

*Winter Rose Wrap is a generous size, rectangle shaped, wrap knit with 4 skeins of fingering weight yarn. When you start knitting the wrap, you first knit the centre triangle. Once that´s finished, you will work each side of the wrap separately. Winter Rose Wrap is a special advent collaboration with Beehive Yarns ♥* YARN - 4 skeins of Beehive Yarns Dusty (80% Superwash Merino, 10% Nylon, 10% Cashmere; approx. 400m [437yds] per 100g), in 4 different colours (1 skein per colour), or approximately the following amounts of fingering weight yarn in each colour: Colour 1: 310m/339yds Colour 2: 340m/372yds Colour 3: 420m/459yds Colour 4: 360m/394yds NOTE: all my skeins were “oversized”, weighing between 110g-111g each, so in case your skeins are exactly 100g, you might need a little bit of extra for Colour 3. Alternately you can use what ever colours you have left in the striped section of each wing, or work less stripes. **SIZE** - Approx. 235cm / 94” long at the neck edge, approx. 134cm / 53.5” long at the lower edge & approx. 49,5cm / 20” wide at the centre of the “spine”. **NEEDLES** - 3,5mm [US4] circular needles (100cm/40” or longer), or size needed to get gauge. **GAUGE** - approx. 19sts & 40 rows = 10cm/4” in garter stitch, after blocking. - gauge is not crucial since this is a shawl, but different gauge will affect the size of the shawl and the amount of yarn needed. **NOTIONS** - tapestry needle for weaving in the ends - 2 stitch markers
