This wrap is scrumptious! The delicious blend of chocolate and cherry colored yarns along with the squishy, soft texture created by the up and down stitch combine to create a magical wrap that is simply divine to wear. It truly is one of my all-time favorite pieces. Add to that the fact that it is so easy and relaxing to crochet, and you have an awesome project for those long winter nights. The finished wrap is 24”x76” so it’s big enough to drape around you in a stylish way or simply wrap up in for warmth like those big blanket scarves that are so in fashion now. But this wrap is a classic. No matter what the fashion is you will be enjoying this one for years to come!

Materials:
Lion Brand Heartland in Acadia – 1 skeins
Lion Brand Heartland in Badlands – 2 skeins
Lion Brand Heartland in Sequoia – 3 skeins
Hook size K/10.5 – 6.5mm for main body of wrap
Hook size L/11 – 8.00 mm for foundation row (optional)
Abbreviations:
Ch – chain
Sc – single crochet
Dc – double crochet
St, sts – stitch, stitches
Gauge:
9 stitches and 9 rows = 4”
Notes:
1. Beginning chains do not count as stitches. Always make your first stitch in the very first stitch in the row.
2. The wrap is 24” from top to bottom, and 76” from end to end.
3. I recommend using the larger hook for the foundation row so it doesn’t turn out too tight, but it’s optional.
4. This simple stitch is called an “up and down” stitch, or a “high-low” stitch. You simply alternate between a sc and dc across your row.
