Pattern notes
This large colourwork wrap is knitted in the round from the bottom up, with steeked openings for the front and both sides. When the desired length is reached, the three steeks are bound off, and each front shoulder is grafted to the back. The steeks are reinforced and cut open, and three ribbed edges, worked all around the side and front openings, complete the wrap. Please note that, in order to standardise yarn quantities, the band order in the chart differs slightly from that of the depicted sample.
