    This is a gorgeous sweater! I think I have some Malabrigo that would be perfect for this :)

    Couldn’t resist, Melissa – even though it’s variegated yarn and in a larger gauge than I usually like. You’re a temptress for sure! :) Unfortunately, I probably won’t be able to get to this anytime soon, but that just gives me more time to suss out the best yarn/color/etc for the wrap!
