Treasures in the Sand Wrap Crochet Pattern

There are so many things I love about my latest design...

Drape--made with a super fine fingering yarn (Loops & Threads Woolike-1) it is so light and wearable. The magenta is Cascade 220 fingering from my stash--only a small bit. 
Cost to Make--Only one skein of each color is required and at under $3/skein can be made for about $12. (I got mine on sale at Michael's for $2.29/skein and then used a coupon, too.)

Versatility--not only can it be made in any colors you wish, but it can be worn in sooo many different ways. Let me show you...

I've included simple instructions in the pattern for adjusting the length and width, too. Plus instructions for making it into a poncho...

Color--I love the ombre with the little pop of color. But can you imagine this in Noro sock yarn? Oh, dear, that makes me a bit breathless. ;) I say, have fun with it! Be daring. Or not.

I can also imagine it being made with heavier yarns into a blanket. Hmmmm. Now that's got my brain thinking...

You can find the pattern here or browse in my shops below...


I've got several fun things on my hook right now. Whimsical, colorful and fun. Plus, I've got some exciting announcements coming up, too! If you want to stay in the "Button" loop come see what's happening on my Facebook page here.

  8. Beautiful! I must admit, I've recently fallen in love with Loops & Thread Woolike. I made a shrug thing for my mom and am currently working on a shawl for myself due to how soft and comfy mom's shrug was. Like you said, incredibly wearable. Kudos!

  9. Quick question; if I were to make the entire wrap with Cascade 220 about how much yardage do you think I would need for each stripe? Did you use the entire skein of Woolike on one stripe?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. I imagine the yardage would be pretty close to the Woolike, which was about 500 yards for each stripe. I didn't use all of each skein.

    2. Thank you! Cascade comes in much smaller yardage so I am just trying to calculate how much I would need.
