The Prestwick Pebble Wrap is designed by Lola Johnson for our Annual (issue five). Please note that the kit does not include the pattern. You can purchase the Annual (issue five) that includes the pattern here.

We now offer handy kits for all our patterns in The Annual (issue five)! This is the cosy Prestwick Pebble Wrap by Lola Johnson which draws inspiration from days by the Ayrshire seaside in southwest Scotland, wandering over pebbles, spotting colourful shells that get buried under the waves as the tide comes in.

All kits include enough yarn to knit the wrap, along with a limited edition button badge and a fab project bag to keep it all safe. Please be aware that the kit does not include a copy of The Annual – you can get your copy here. Happy knitting!

Lola Johnson’s Prestwick Pebble Wrap echoes the waves in different textured stitch patterns and colours that invite to play with your favourite colours.

The Prestwick Pebble Wrap is perfect for drapey 4ply and Sport yarns such as Exmoor Sock and our new Seafarer Sport (officially launching in the Autumn, but you can already get it in this Kit!).

Yarn Characteristics

Exmoor Sock: Exmoor Sock not only celebrates Exmoor, but is designed to be perfect for socks, whilst still having the versatility to suit garments and accessories that relish a hard-wearing, machine-washable yarn. It’s durable and bouncy, with great stitch definition and holds up incredibly well. We offer our Exmoor Sock in 50g skeins so that 3 skeins will make you two pairs of socks in most sizes!

70% British wool, 20% Falklands wool, 10% Nylon.

200m per 50g

Seafarer Sport: Seafarer is a luxurious blend with a hardworking, unpretentious air – equally suited to ethereal accessories and hardwearing garments. Exmoor Blueface brings its wonderful springy nature to the blend, Bluefaced Leicester lends its outstandingly soft handle, whilst a dash of rustic Devon Closewool keeps those pills at bay, and Romney gives a beautiful woolly halo. Adding a dash of Silk just enhances the blends sheen and fine drape, creating something truly unique.

90% British Wool (Exmoor Blueface, Bluefaced Leicester, Devon Closewool and Romney) / 10% Mulberry Silk

300m per 100g | 75m per 25g minis

Care Instructions

We recommend that our yarns are gently washed before use as we don’t do any washing or conditioning after the yarns are spun and skeined. You’ll be amazed by how much the fibre blooms after a soak and it will certainly help you get a more accurate feel for gauge and character of the yarn over time.

Once your piece is finished, we recommend another hand wash before wet blocking the piece to the given dimensions. This will set all your stitches and guarantee that your garment looks its best.
