Flattering wrap cardi or dress with a cool and unusual construction. Also a perfect opportunity to use left over Silk Mohair from your stash.

Worked in one piece. Start working a rectangle in garter sts, then pick up stitches and work in a U-shape while increasing. When the coat has the desired width you cast off and cast on for sleeve openings, and continue with the front. Stitches for the front bands and sleeves are picked up and knit on smaller needles.
