Are you a wanderer? Do you ramble aimlessly, or perhaps have a more predicable path? This wrap can be anything you want. You choose the yarn, the drape of the fabric and how much or little you want to wander..

Designed for gauges from 16-28 sts/4” in garter stitch. Work a double crochet swatch in your desired yarn and needle size to find a fabric you like, then use the instructions for that gauge.

Yardage needed for 20” x 65”:

  • Fingering: 800-1200 yards
  • Sport: 700-900 yards
  • DK: 600-800 yards
  • Worsted: 500-700 yards

Needle size varies - use the size that gives the fabric you like with the chosen yarn.

Your eyelet paths may:

  • Wander Predictably - all paths zig zag in a regular pattern
  • Wander Together - all paths remain parallel to each other, but the direction they all take is chosen randomly
  • Wander Like Crazy - each path’s direction is randomly chosen. They might overlap, cross, diverge, who knows…

Samples shown in (left to right in group picture):

  • Knit Picks Chroma Fingering - 3 balls of Red Velvet, Wander Like Crazy
  • Scheepjes Stone Washed - 9 skeins of Deep Amethyst, variant on Wander Like Crazy
  • Cascade Revive - 6 skeins of 31-Shaded Spruce, Wander Together
