Enchanted Delight Knitting Pattern

Enchanted Delight is a bias rectangular wrap, designed for the Little Likac yarn advent 2023 – but suitable for other advents, stashbusting or minis!

It is inspired by the textures of winter. The crispness of snow before it has been walked on, the beauty of falling snow, and the changing shape of the landscape throughout the season.

The techniques used are simple enough to let you work through your 20g a day of advent yarn while navigating the rest of your festive preparations – or when collapsing into a tired heap at the end of the day.

Information is given to adapt the size and shape to meet your preferences.
