Notes
The yarn used for this wrap isn’t the easiest. You need to stitch quite loosely and you have to use feel most of the time instead of sight. It is well worth the end result. Try to count the stitches in every row to ensure that you have the correct number. The stitch count is the important thing.
I was able to find this yarn at Amazon.
This pattern works perfectly fine for a scarf as well.
