Volute is worked flat holding fingering weight and 2 mohair yarns together for the entire rectangle. The edges are worked with fingering only, but doubled with the stripe colors offset or matched as desired, in a 2 row looser I-cord worked to allow the piece to remain flat. The rectangle is then folded with one short end grafted or sewn to the opposite end of a long side.
