The Design
“Wrap yourself in woolly softness!”
For this version of the Modern Wrapper, we chose Brooklyn Tweed's fingering-weight woolen spun yarn, Loft, to pair with the Rowan Kidsilk Haze. The resulting fabric is lofty and warm, like wrapping yourself in a the softest of woolly blankets. A perfect weight for a winter's nap, or a spring ramble along the shore. Cozy!
