I happen to have 2 skeins of KSH waiting for this. It’s adorable, and I shall have to knit it. Thanks for the pattern.
I have a few different stash yarns that would look great with this. I love all of your patterns! Thank you.
Thank you, I’m glad you like it.
Thanks for sharing! =)
the perfect gifr for my mother :0) thanks

Hi Wendy,
I am really enjoying making your asymmetric wrap. But, I’m having trouble with the border, I don’t really understand it..? I’m not a very advanced knitter but have got the basics. Can you help?
When i try to follow the instructions I just end up going back and forth over the four cast on stitches and not advancing along the edge at all. Is that right? And it doesn’t look like the photo at all. Where am I going wrong..?
Many thanks for any help you can offer and apologies for bothering you at such a busy time of year!
Best wishes and seasons greetings,
Josey
First of all the way this works is called a knitted on border, you cast on the width of the border and the last stitch in the odd rows is always knitted as the last stitch of the border together with a stitch from the last row of the wrap. (k2tog)
What you should be doing is working one extra stitch into the border with every 2 rows.
k1 k2tog yo k2 tog turn
k4 turn
xxxxxxxxxxxxxvvvv x = last row of wrap v= border stitches.
notice row 1 uses 5 stitches up. k1 (1) k2tog (3) yo (3) k2tog (5) so the first x has now disappeared.
xxxxxxxxxxxxvovv after 1 row.
Then you knit back to the end and do it all over again.
If you were working on just the 4 cast on stitches you probably just missed one of the knit 2 togethers.
I hope that helps.
Wendy
Love this pattern. Can’t wait to try it. Do you have any assymetrical wraps which have a button closure toward one shoulder?
It wouldn’t be hard to add a button closure to this wrap, when you finish try it on and work out where you want the button then use one of the holes in the edge to fasten it.
I love your pattern but not sure what does ‘pm’ means on row 3? for the first cast on 7 st, is it at the neck area and how can I keep on making it big until the size desired? Thx for your help.
pm stands for place marker. Each yo adds a stitch so you are adding 6 stitches in every second row.
BTW sorry for taking so long to get back to you, its been a busy month!
