A wide variety of yarns can be used to make this wrap,
which will cause the sizing to vary slightly. Worsted,
aran, and aran chunky weight yarns are all suitable but
needle size will need to be adjusted. Choose needle
sizes so that the stocking stitch in the ties is firm and not
too loose. You could also use a DK weight yarn held
double.
