Cabled Wrap Reviewed by Lois Abbiate on 2010-03-01
this is a stunning wrap but photo leaves alot to be desired! It is merely a rectangle that does not easily fall the way the photo depicts. the pattern stitches and the yarn are what make it stricking and the wearer needs to create their own flair when wearing it.
