For accessibility this pattern collection is available in my etsy.com shop. This fun wrap, scarf or shawlette is a great way to try out your inner artist. The little gemstones can be as colorful or simple as you like. The wrap is fully adjustable in size, gauge, and yarn weight. The samples were made on a 1/2 inch gauge, 58 peg loom, using both dk and worsted weight yarn. The pattern is very flexible, so you may make the wrap as large or small as you like.

The inspiration for this wrap came from a very sweet needle knit pattern called “Garden in Garter Shawl “ which can be found here: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/garden-in-garter-....

The Gemstones Wrap pattern is part of a multi-part .pdf ebook, that includes a 24 point large print text file (90 pages), a 12 point paper-saver file (36 pages), cover, 6 pages of photos, and two pages of diagrams.

My patterns are low vision and screen reader accessible. The text is black, Arial and large print 24 point font. All of the directions are fully written out and no charts are relied on to complete the patterns. No italics are used. They are screen reader and tablet friendly.
