This unusual design, the Echo Reversible Mobius, was designed by Kristin Omdahl, is the focus of a class that will be taught by Becky Bales. Becky has two sessions: Tuesdays, June 7 & 21 (Noon to 2 p.m.) OR Saturdays, August 20 & 27 (10 a.m to Noon)
Kristin is a talented designer who has authored this book, A Knitting Wrapsody.
Worked in a reversible fabric, both the right and wrong sides of this mobius wrap look the same. To showcase the unusual texture of the beautiful yarn, Kristin incorporated dropped stitches—which form simple un-stitched yarn and ensure a pretty drape. For versatility, she worked this project in a flat piece and added buttons on the right and wrong sides so that it could be fastened with or without the mobius twist. Twisted and secured, you’ve got a mobius. Straight and secured with one or two buttons, you’ve got a capelet. Wrapped twice around the neck and secured with one or two buttons, you’ve got a cowl. Flat and gorgeous all on its own, you’ve got a reversible scarf!
