Another project I did for my simple shapes class, there’s nothing new about this type of wrap, just a rectangle folded in half and sewn up with a space left for your head to pop through. I’ve been making these for many years, using mostly Dk or finer yarn, knit fairly open for drape, in K/P motifs or in lace. They’re fun, kinda elegant, you can dress them up or down and there’s no complicated shaping -so easy.
(class hand-out contained dimensions, diagrams, assembly instructions & photos-no stitch charts or graphs, that choice is left up to the knitter.)
