This is a versatile garment! Imagine a wrap, a shawl and a poncho had a baby! It goes over your shoulders like a shawl, is shaped like a wrap, and keeps you warm like a poncho. A long rectangle that goes up your back and divides at the neck and comes down your front. Think of it as a Long Shawl. Wide enough to fall down your arms enough to keep your shoulders cozy and you can make it as long as you like, although the pattern suggests 29” from your shoulders. Knit it with Worsted to make it a bit larger, or sport to make it a bit smaller! Very versatile and fun to make!
