Guernsey Wrap


It's been a while! Getting back to knitting, I wanted to start with something less demanding so as not to get discouraged too easily. The Guernsey Wrap by Jared Flood seemed like the perfect project for that purpose. I chose Rowan Felted Tweed for the yarn for an airy and tweedy look, and it seems to have worked out pretty well. I'm not sure what kind of practical use I will have for the finished product, but at least it looks nice in pictures.

  1. I love this wrap. The stitch detail really shows up well. I have never tried a Jared Flood pattern before but I particularly like this one. I have popped it in my shopping basket and am now looking for a suitable colour in felted tweed. Thank you.

  2. Yes it does look great in the photos, it's inspired me to also knit this. As usual your knitting and photos are fantastic.

  3. Can I ask how diffcult you found this pattern? I am a beginner knitter that wants to branch out and found your post thru Raverly. Your wrap looks amazing!

  4. It's a very easy pattern. It's just a combination of knit and purl stitches. You only need to be able to read a chart, and that's about it.
