If you’re looking to make your gifts just a little more personal this year, why not try knitting up a cozy for them? I think this wrapped wrap idea is perfect for smaller gifts like jewelry, but you can also adapt this pattern to fit a nice bottle of wine, coffee cup, or anything else you can think of. Just alter how many stitches you cast on and the length of your knitting, easy peasy!

Sizing note: The listed pattern was designed to fit the box pictured, which is about 14 inches as measured around the outside. The finished wrap measures 3.75 by 14.25 inches before it’s seamed together, and the pattern gauge is 3.5 stitches and 4 rows per inch knit in stockinette stitch after wet blocking.
