Zing-Zing by Sarah E. Chapman

Craft: Knitting

The Zing-Zing wrap is an exploration of color: hold two strands of Alegria, our fingering weight yarn, and knit each section in a different color combination to see the marling color effect! The triangle sections are shaped by short rows to create stacked triangles. All in all, it’s a constantly changing knit that you won’t want to put down!
