This shawl begins simple enough, with the comfort of garter stitch leading to a finale of stranded bliss. With its i-cord bind off, the final piece is substantial, interesting, and cozy.

Worked flat, this wrap requires knitting knowledge including: cast on, knit/purl, increasing, reading charts, managing/locking floats, i-cord bind off, and simple finishing, all on circular needles.
