I found Primrose Yarn Co a while ago when I was searching for a hand-dyed yarn alternative to Voolenvine, since it's pretty much impossible to get any of that yarn anymore. I am so glad I discovered Primrose. This stuff is gorgeous! My three colors here are Vixen (pink), Angry Ocean (multi), and Titan (navy). It's like they were made for each other!
The pattern is a wrap called Lilli Pilli, and it is very popular. There are over 1100 versions of it on Ravelry. The shape is a long parallelogram, which it turns out is really easy to wear. The sections of garter stitch stripes and lace are really beautiful together.
This thing is huge, but it is lightweight, so it has been a great layer for those days when I know I'll be in excessive air conditioning.
The lace pattern is very pretty. I like the bold diamond pattern.
This is definitely my favorite knitted wrap-y thing to date. It is sooooo pretty and I don't feel like the crazy knitting lady like I do with some shawls. I am wearing it with my Vogue 1440 blouse and purchased RTW pants.
This is really lovely. Divine colour combos!
