This is one of those projects which looks deceptively complicated. The finished wrap is a piece that you can dress up or down; it’s cosy when wrapped around the neck with a jacket but also makes a beautiful shawl for around the shoulders in summer. The scarf version makes a classy accessory. The wrap was designed as a pattern to use 12 x 20g 4ply/fingering weight mini skeins such as you might get in an advent kit/calendar (inspired by the annual ECY 12 Days of Winter mini skein set). Both the wrap and scarf could also be done in one colour.
