My Path Wrap

My Path is a wrap worked in syncopated brioche, using chevrons to add movement to the stitches. It is an excellent way to use mini-skeins, either through purchased sets or the accumulation of leftover yarn from completed projects.

Finished Size

22¼" wide and 84½" tall (along border) on blocking board.

17½" wide and 79" tall (along border) when relaxed after blocking.

Yarn

Fiber Optic Yarns Kashmir (80% Superwash Merino Wool / 10% Ultrafine Cashmere / 10% Nylon) (4 oz, 420 yards, 3 ply) Fingering-weight (CYC #1): 2 skeins in Steel (MC) and 1 Infinity Fade set in Fractal (CC).

Needles

3.75 mm (US 5) circular needle or size needed to obtain gauge or appropriate for your yarn.

Notions

Cable needle, tapestry needle.

Gauge

Gauge is provided so you can achieve a similar-sized wrap to the one shown here, and will have enough yarn to complete the project. Each row is two passes: one MC, slide the needle, one CC. For the stitch count, the yarnover is considered part of the accompanying slipped stitch. The measurements are taken from a swatch of one brioche chevron after it has been blocked. To work the brioche chevron, cast on 29 stitches and work 2 brioche rib stitches, one chevron (first 25 stitches of repeat), and 2 brioche rib stitches.

25 stitches = 3 1/4"

20 rows = 5 5/8"
