all you knit is love
neus
Elegant, with a touch of the bohemian, and convinced that a straight line is not the most interesting way to get somewhere. That description fits both our neighbor Neus and this versatile, drapey, bias-knit wrap, designed with he in mind.

Glossary
Tips
K = knit P = purl RS = Right side WS = Wrong side sll = slip 1 stitch purlwise kfb = knit front and back: knit the stitch through the front loop, but leave it on the left needle; then knit it again going through the back loop of the stitch k2tog = knit 2 stitches together ssk = slip 1 stitch knitwise, slip 1 stitch purlwise, then go into the front of those stitches with the left needle and knit them together. Because the stitch pattern looks fairly similar on the RS and WS, I like to place a removable stitch marker, safety pin or piece of contrasting color yarn at the beginning of the RS rows (through an edge stitch). This is a visual reminder that you need to increase and decrease on these rows. You can just move it along as your wrap grows.
