Flutter Wrap
Flutter Wrap
Designed to look and feel like a well loved blanket… the one you grab for when you seek the comfort of something familiar, like a gentle hug from a dear friend.
Flutter Wrap is an asymmetrical-triangle shaped wrap (shawl) worked from one point to the other. Adorned with eyelets & squishy texture throughout, Flutter Wrap is delicately cozy… enjoyable to knit and to wear.

Pattern Construction
Flutter Wrap begins with only a handful of stitches. Increases are worked during Part I to the “center drop” length. Part II of this pattern, (the decrease section) decreases twice as fast as Part I increased, creating the asymmetrical shape.
This is an advanced-beginner level pattern.
