Love the stripes! And you can do amazing things with short rows - either two-dimensional like @jamethiel's blanket or three-dimensional like short row heels in socks.
Though I don't really like wrap & turn, I prefer the way I learnt it, what's called "German short rows" in the English speaking knitting world: Here's a photo tutorial about it, Verypink Knits has a great video showing the technique. I think it's more simple and even more "invisible".
