Mysore
Mysore Wrap Pattern
Mysore
is a simple, relaxing wrap knitting pattern designed for
Erika Knight British Blue dk yarn
The use of colour blocking and the addition of the tassels adds other dimensions to this wrap and these simple things really turns it into something extra special without having to work too hard to achieve this look.
The completed wrap is a fabulous 200cm long and 38cm wide, making it very versatile to style as a long scarf wrapping your neck in cosiness, or maybe you prefer to tie it the french way – folded in half and tucking the ends through the loop you created. A perfect wrap to play with and really make your own.
It is knitted on 5.00mm needles and the skills you need to make this are knit, purl, k2tog – knit the next 2 stitches together as if they are just 1 stitch (decreases by 1 stitch), kfb – knit into the front and back of the next stitch (increases by 1 stitch).
You will need 8 balls in 5 different colours;
1x 106 Milk Chocolate, 1 x 115 Mysore Red, 2 x 107 French, 2 x 107 Gift, 2 x 116 Mr Bhashin which is the ‘Muted’ option shown. Suggested colours are also ‘Black, Black’ which uses 1 x 113 Pitch, 1 x 102 Mouse, 2 x 115 Mysore Red, 2 x 116 Mr Bhasin and 2 x 107 French and also ‘Steve’ which uses 1 x 109 Steve, 1 x 102 Mouse, 2 x 112 Dance, 2 x 106 Milk Chocolate and 2 x 107 Gift. Obviously you are not restricted to these colours; just make your own blend!
If you would like to knit this wrap in an alternative yarn then the perfect alternative would be Katia Basic Merino dk, and because the meterage on this yarn is greater, you only need 1 ball of each of your selected colours – just click the photo to show you the colour choices.
