Reese Wrap

Versatility knows no bounds in this beautiful project. This simply constructed shawl creates a substantial material that can be draped over the shoulders in the cooler evenings, and its longer length makes it a cinch to wear in a cowl-like fashion as the winter months draw closer.

Skill Level: Easy

Size: Approx. 31.5” / [80 cm] tall x 70.75” / [180 cm] long.

Gauge: 12 sts and 8 rows = 4” [10 cm] after a steam blocking

Material

Light weight yarnYarn: Garnstudio Drops Cotton Merino (50% Wool, 50% Cotton; 120 yards [110 meters]/50 grams): 13 Coral (8 balls)

Hook: 10.75 (7.0 mm)

Notions: Removable markers (1), tapestry needle

Pattern Notes

This pattern is worked from the widest part and decreased down.

Only two stitch types are used, hdc and slip stitch. The slip stitch is purely decorative and the returning Hdc row is worked in the top of the previous Hdc row. When turning for the Hdc row I have chosen to only ch1 as I prefer the edge that this creates, you can chain 2 if desired.

Pattern is easily adjustable to your preference

  • Why does this pattern call for “10.5 needles” to be used when it is obviously a crocheted item? I’m using a “J’ hook so it will be a looser stitch.
