Buttoned-up Wrap
Lion Brand® Incredible® - Moonlight Mohair
GAUGE: 5 stitches + 10 rows = 4 in. [10 cm] in pattern stitch (seed stitch). BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

| Buttoned-up Wrap Reviewed by Christine de Visser on 2008-11-21 |

| This was a very quick and easy pattern and the yarns were great to work with. Not having ever used needles larger than size 13, it was a momentary adjustment to knit with the size 50. You need to find another way to hold these big needles, but once you get the hang of it, it was a breeze. The finished product looks nicer in person than pictured on this site and is usable all year long (cool enough for summer evenings and warn enough for winter). I chose to use a large shawl pin instead of buttons and draped it more with a cowl neck instead of tight up against my neck. I have had many compliments on this project.
