Anne Wrap Scarf Knitting Pattern

Anne Wrap in Rowan Kidsilk Haze

What is Being Made

The Anne Wrap is a long, luxurious knitted wrap designed by Chloe Thurlow. This downloadable knitting pattern creates a finished wrap measuring 45 cm (17¾ inches) wide and approximately 264 cm (103¾ inches) long, making it an elegant accessory suitable for layering or draping.

Techniques Used

The Anne Wrap employs fundamental knitting techniques accessible to intermediate-level knitters. The pattern uses garter stitch for the initial foundation rows and incorporates stockinette stitch as the primary fabric construction throughout most of the wrap. The design features strategic color blocking with planned yarn transitions at specific row intervals, creating distinct horizontal bands of color that progress along the length of the wrap. Edge stitches are maintained in garter stitch (knit on all rows) along the 4-stitch borders on both sides, providing a neat, finished appearance and preventing curl at the edges.

Stitches Used

• Garter Stitch (g st): Created by knitting every row, used for the initial 4-row foundation and maintained as 4-stitch edge borders throughout
• Stockinette Stitch (st st): The primary stitch pattern formed by alternating knit rows on the right side with purl rows on the wrong side, creating the smooth, classic fabric texture
• Knit (K): The fundamental stitch used in various contexts throughout the pattern
• Purl (P): Used in combination with knit stitches to create stockinette stitch sections

Materials

The Anne Wrap is knitted using Rowan Kidsilk Haze, a luxurious yarn available in three distinct colorways, each comprising six coordinated shades. The pattern requires one 25-gram ball each of six different colors per colorway selection. Knitters work with 5mm (US 8) needles (one pair required). The recommended tension is 18 stitches and 23 rows to 10 centimeters measured over stockinette stitch using 5mm needles, ensuring proper drape and finished dimensions.

Colorway Options

The pattern offers three complete colorway schemes, each featuring six coordinated Rowan Kidsilk Haze shades that transition progressively throughout the wrap:

• First Colorway: Pumpkin, Campsis, Watermelon, Ultra, Flamingo, and Fuchsia
• Second Colorway: Aegean, Verdant, Olive, Jelly, Eve Green, and Mineral
• Third Colorway: Blackcurrant, Plum, Magenta, Burgundy, Scarlett, and Ruby

Skill Level

This pattern is rated as intermediate difficulty, making it suitable for knitters with foundational skills who are ready to work with color transitions and manage longer-term projects. The straightforward stitch repertoire combined with the extended length and color-blocking sequence provides an engaging project without requiring advanced techniques.
