    Open Air Wrap In Linen Quill

    Our Open Air Wrap is an oldie but a goodie! The same simple row over and over and a
    fabric so voluminous and beautiful, its process is as satisfying as its result.

    We love that, although lace, this wrap is far from dainty. Its simple mesh pattern is more
    working-in-front-of-an-air-conditioner-under-a-deadline than tea-time-in-the-parlor.

    In our Linen Quill, the Open Air Wrap achieves a lovely combination of loft and drape. A
    blend of fine highland wool, alpaca, and linen, there are also dozens of gorgeous colors
    to choose from! We used Kiln Red because its warm glow is totally lovely on almost
    everybody.

    2/8
    Whatever color you pick, you’ll need just two skeins, which is pretty awesome and also
    why we’re casting on for our next one!

    Yarn Over Before Purl Stitch

    For more information about making yarn overs before or between purl stitches, visit our
    Yarn Over tutorial.

    Purl 2 Together

    In this stitch pattern, you will make every purl 2 together by inserting the right needle into
    first the purl 2 together from the previous round and then the yarn over from the previous
    round. Then, as with any normal purl stitch, you will wrap the working yarn counter
    clockwise around the right needle and pull a stitch through. Drop the two stitches from the
    left needle and get ready to yarn over!

    Pattern
    Cast on 98 stitches. We used a basic Long Tail Cast On.

    Row 1: K1, *yarn over, purl 2 together, repeat from * to last stitch, k1.

    Repeat Row 1 until you have used both skeins, minus several yards. (At this point, your
    wrap may be only about 65 inches long but will grow when you block it.)

    7/8
    Bind off loosely, purling each stitch.

    Weave in the ends, then gently wet block to finish!
