Hello, my knitting friend. This pattern is now free for all to enjoy at no cost. Share your talent by gifting your makes, or enjoy a cozy new knit just for you. I know times can be tough, but there is always something to be grateful for. Enjoy!

This drapey, worsted-weight, rectangular wrap is worked in a multi-row repeat and is ideal for a slow color-changing yarn. A wrap is perfect for the beginner ready to learn the next stitches beyond the knit and purl or the seasoned knitter who is after some TV, pool, or fireside knitting.

Gauge:
15.5 stitches and 21.5 rows in stockinette over 4” (10cm)

Materials:

Yarn:
1 full cake (530 yrd/485m, 250g/8.8oz) of Caron Cotton Cake by Caron (60% Cotton/40% acrylic) The sample was knit in colorway Calico Flowers. (note: The cotton/acrylic blend of this yarn contributes to the drape of the finished wrap. While any worsted weight yarn may be used, consideration should be given to the fiber content if you are wanting to maintain the drape.)

Needles:
US size 8 (5 mm) The sample was knit using 32” circular needles but anything over 24” should work

Removable Stitch Marker:
To mark front side of work
