Apollo Wrap
​Interweave | Urban Knit Collection: 18 City-inspired Knitting Patterns for the Modern Wardrobe, 2016

---

Celebrating the theatre facades of the Art Deco era, the Apollo Wrap is designed with bands of intarsia garter stitch. Working from the top down, the texture of garter stitch builds continuity through the piece. Using solid or kettle dyed yarns will help to highlight the angled sections. The generous size of this wrap also makes it ideal as a lap blanket.
