With cooler weather on the way, I was inspired to design a stylish and affordable wrap perfect for our SW Florida fall and winter months. I was determined to use only one skein per wrap because I had picked up a single cake each of four colors of Lion Brand Mandala Yarn some weeks ago and just knew these would be perfect to making a little something pretty to keep the chill away. It turns out these wraps are quick to make and look good enough to gift this holiday season.

There are 16 fun color ways in the yarn collection and I have created four styles of wrap, the Vee (shown here in Chimera), Spirit Rectangular pattern is available here, the Sphinx Triangle and the Pegasus Asymmetrical.

This particular style is an impressive 56” across and 37” at the wide end. Gauge is not critical but in order to achieve the desired length with a single cake of yarn, take care that 4 rows of sc alternated with 3 rows of trc, ch2 is not much less than 4”.

Skill Level: I’m going to say beginner but you must be familiar with working increase rows, edging techniques and working chainless beginning stitches
If you are not familiar with the chainless trc, there are a few variations with tutorials you can find with a Google search, or use a ch 3 and trc in the fist stitch.
