It is a light weight shawl or wrap that’s easy to pack and a joy to knit on the go! This versatile accessory is the ultimate addition to any jet setter’s wardrobe. Made from soft, breathable yarn, it will keep you warm on chilly airplane cabins and in drafty hotel rooms, while still being lightweight enough to wear as a stylish accessory during your travels.
Don’t be afraid of the lace, it’s a simple charted pattern and worked on US 8 needles, so it knits up surprisingly quickly and is perfect for beginner and intermediate knitters alike. Whether you’re on a long flight or watching tv at home, the Traveler (shawl or wrap) will keep you occupied and entertained.
The Shawl or Wrap are worked on US 8 needles, so they knit up surprisingly quickly.
There is no cost for the KAL, but you do need to buy your own copy of her pattern. We have some fun yarn suggestions for you!

| Instructor: | Marci Marra |
| Instructor Bio: | Reflecting on my beginnings in knitting back in 2016, I noticed a gap in the availability of high-fashion patterns. Motivated by this observation, I set out to create contemporary designs that would transcend occasions, including the boardroom. With a heartfelt desire to transition from my role in management consulting in 2023, I embraced the opportunity to pursue knit design wholeheartedly. Through self-guided learning and unwavering determination, I embarked on a journey of discovery, blending my artistic background with a newfound passion for knitting. I've been humbled by the recognition my designs have received within the knitting community. |
