Pattern Notes
- Yarn is carried through the striping section to minimize weaving in ends.
- It is recommended to block your wrap for the best finished results.
- The numbers in the brackets at the end of rows indicate the st count.
- When choosing the yarn for this pattern, keep in mind that Coboo is a cotton/bamboo blend, meaning this yarn or any other natural fibers will stretch much more when blocking than an acrylic blend yarn.
- Keep in mind: Your gauge, yardage used, and finished size may vary depending on the yarn you choose and if you make any changes to the pattern as written.

Fringe
Each twisted fringe will consist of two strands of color A and two strands of color B.
Step 1: Cut 38 pieces of color A and 38 pieces of color B, each 12” long.
Step 2: Fold one piece of A and B in half and insert into the corner edge of your wrap using a small crochet hook. Pull the ends of the fringe through the loop and tighten. Repeat this step every three stitches along each edge, creating 19 pieces of fringe on either end of your wrap.
Step 3: Take both strands of A in one hand and both strands of B in the other, and twist many times separately, but in the same direction. Then twist the two colors together in the opposite direction, which will create a rope look, (see picture). Make a knot at the end to secure the twisted strand. Repeat this step across both ends of your wrap, and trim excess when finished for a clean and even look.
