The gorgeous Wonderwall Shawl by Melanie Berg is an elongated semi-circular wrap with a cozy garter stitch body and simple colourwork stripes that add a delightful pop of fun and personality. The top-down construction is simple to follow, made even easier with Melanie’s unique ‘Row Map’ – a printable checklist that accompanies each row of the pattern, allowing you to pick up and put down your project without worrying where you are. Just what we need!
We do not stock the pattern ourselves, but you can find it from Melanie herself on her Ravelry page, here.
Melanie uses our scrummy Harvest Hues Worsted to make this gorgeous wrap and we just love the mix of cosiness and drape that it gives. Using a subtle main colour, Melanie allows the rainbow of Harvest Hues mini skeins to really pop! We adore the mix of shades she chose for her sample, and we’ve added a couple of extra colour combos which we think will look ace!
