This breezy knitting pattern was inspired by the yarn choice. Most of the time I pick the yarn before I come up with the project and this was no exception.
Rewind yarn came out last year (2018) from Lion Brand and I grabbed some up right away. It’s a bulky tape yarn, but it’s light as air. There have been a few cute bag patterns worked up using it including the Capri Circle bag from Two of Wands, which was an instant hit over at LB.
The Forest Hills Wrap used every last inch of my 3 balls of Rewind. If you’re nervous you can either grab a 4th skein, skip the fringe, or work only 10 pattern repeats length instead of the 11 I did.
The dropped stitches make this piece hard to determine the gauge for. It measures 19″ wide after the stitches are dropped.
