Materials

• 3 x Scheepjes Invicta Color (974)
• 4.0mm (US G/6) hook

Scheepjes Invicta Color was a classic variegated sock yarn with a 75% wool / 25% polyamide blend. This specific yarn is no longer available. A great replacement yarn is Scheepjes Our Tribe.

Scheepjes Our Tribe is available from Wool Warehouse (UK/Int), Love Crafts (USA), Caro’s Atelier (NL/EU) or your favorite Scheepjes Stockist.

Gauge and Size

Gauge is not essential for this project and it’s not needed to make a gauge swatch. If your gauge is similar to mine your final wrap will be approximately 200cm wide and 90cm at its widest point.
