The Light Unexpected Find Wrap pattern is mostly based on the The Unexpected Find Wrap Pattern. The Light Unexpected Find Wrap is also a triangular shaped shawl. It is knit bottom up. The shawl features a two row repeat brioche honeycomb stitch pattern. However, nine stitches instead of seven are cast on for this shawl. It is also knit with a merino wool blend DK weight yarn (Loops and Threads® Luxe Merino™ Wool Blend). This yarn is lighter yet warm, making it suitable for this winter season. The yarn is also budget friendly and can be purchased at Michaels store.

The Drapes Well Scarf is a rectangular infinity scarf that is knit flat and then joined at the cast on and the bind off edges. The scarf is knit with 2 strands of yarn held together in a combination of the garter stitch and the brioche honeycomb stitch patterns. The brioche honeycomb stitch pattern is a combination of slipped stitches and yarnovers in one row and knit 2 togethers in the next row. The yarn (Lion Brand® Yarn TruBoo) is smooth and silky that drapes well making it ideal to knit this infinity scarf. The 2 strands of yarn held together in the Drapes Well Scarf adds extra warmth around the neck making it an accessory suitable for cold weather.
