NOTES

CONSTRUCTION

You will knit this wrap lengthwise, casting on for the long edge.

STITCH MULTIPLE

This pattern is worked over an odd number of stitches.

PATTERN

With Yarn A, cast on 421 stitches. We used a basic Long Tail Cast On.

TIP: When you’re casting on so many stitches, it really helps to place a marker or piece of scrap yarn every 50 stitches. That way, when you lose count (which you will!), you won’t have to recount all the stitches. Just remember to remove these markers when you work the first row.

**Row 1 (wrong side): With Yarn A, *k1, p1, repeat from * to last stitch, k1.

Row 2 (right side): Repeat Row 1.

Row 3 : K2, *p1, k1 repeat from * to last stitch, k1.

Row 4: Repeat Row 3.

Repeat Rows 1–4 six more times, then repeat Rows 1 and 2 one more time.

Drop Yarn A, but do not cut.

Join Yarn B, leaving at least a 6-inch tail.

With Yarn B and carrying Yarn A up the side, repeat Rows 3 and 4.

Cut Yarn B, leaving at least a 6-inch tail.

Repeat from ** 3 more times, until piece measures approximately 14¼ inches from cast-on edge and you have four total stripes in Yarn B.

With Yarn A, repeat Rows 1–4 seven times, until piece measures approximately 3¼ inches from last Yarn B row.

Next Row (wrong side): Repeat Row 1 one more time.

With right side facing you, bind off in pattern as for Row 2.

FINISHING

Weave in Yarn A ends only, leaving Yarn B tails intact, and gently wet block to finished dimensions.

FRINGE

Cut 7 strands of Yarn B, each 12 inches long. With wrong side facing you, insert crochet hook into the edge stitch at the tail end of a Yarn B stripe. Holding cut strands of Yarn B together, fold them in half, and use hook to pull the fold a little bit through to wrong side of work, creating a loop. Thread yarn tails (including the ones from the Yarn B stripe) through the loop and pull gently to tighten.

Make fringe at the tail end of each Yarn B stripe, as described, then repeat along the other side of the wrap, but cutting 8 strands of Yarn B each time.

Trim fringe to 4 inches long on either side, and you’re done!
