A modularly-knit, rectangular wrap made up of squares worked in the round from the centre out. Each square begins with a small number of stitches, and increases worked with double yarnovers create diagonal lines that intersect at the corners. The squares are joined with Three-needle bind offs on all edges, no sewing required!

The optional lining is worked lengthwise, and joined to the other live edges with Three-needle bind offs. I used small buttons to join the lining with the body of the wrap, but you could also stitch them together like a quilt, or leave them unattached.
