This simple wrap combines two fundamentals of knitting, stocking stitch and reverse stocking stitch, to create a reversible texture. It is knitted on the bias, increasing in width as you go, so you can make it any size you like and you never have to worry about running out of yarn. The pattern may look long and complicated, but it isn’t, it’s just written with detail for inexperienced knitters.
