Wearing this wrap makes me feel like 'm attending my own coronation. This is one of the easiest things you could make and it looks gorgeous. Mohair will keep you fuzzy and warm while the pattern is loose and airy.
Instructions:
CO 61 sts (or an uneven number to the desired width) Row 1: Knit Row 2: \*K2tog, yo\*, rep to last st, knit Repeat these two rows until wrap reaches desired length, or until you run out of yarn BO very loosely. Weave in ends. Finishing: Cut your ribbon in half and be sure the ends won't fray (stick them near a flame to melt the ends, depending on the ribbon -but be careful). Weave the ribbon through at one-inch intervals starting approx. 12 inches from one end. Using a needle and thread, arrange one end of the ribbon into a bow and sew a button on top of it making sure you are sewing i to at leastwo strands of yarm at the edge of your wrap. Repeat on the other side of the wrap pulling the ribbon so it is bunched as much as you would like. Repeat for opposite end.
