The Perplexity Wrap is a boomerang style wrap / shawl (shlanket?) knit primarily in garter stitch with accents of eyelets and a simple lace pattern.
The finished size of the Perplexity Wrap is determined by the yarn weight option you select. Choose to knit in fingering weight yarns for a lightweight fashion shawl or in worsted to bulky weight yarns for a perfectly cozy cold weather wrap!
