Designed for someone very special who has been going through a lot, physically and mentally over the past 7 plus months, the Long Distance Hug Wrap is an oversized rectangular wrap that is meant to feel like a big warm hug when worn. With beautiful lace, garter stitch sections and an I-cord edging, it is sure to be an heirloom.

I have included a page with a handy set of charts for you to be able to keep track of which row and/or repeat you are on.
