Construction:
An Italian cast on (with video tutorial linked to in the pattern), kicks off this fast and fun knit.
The two “wings” of the wrap are knit first. These textured lace panel repeats have full written instructions and charts and knit up really fast. The second wing is knit together with the body of the wrap. The sizing and shaping is achieved by the use of german short rows, for which full instructions are provided in the pattern. The stitch detailing in herringbone stitch is not complicated and a video tutorial is provided for those who have not tried this fun stitch before.
The wrap is finished off with a double graft in Kitchener stitch and once again a video tutorial is linked to directly from the pattern.
