Nauset Light is a generously sized wrap. The piece finishes out at approx. 90 inches long by 20 inches wide. It is knit with two strands of yarn at a time. The wrap takes 1 skein each of 10 different colors of a sport weight yarn. Using two different colors at the same time leads to a very pleasing series of gradient stripes. Getting an exact gauge is not critical, but you do want a nice drape to your fabric.
