SIZE
One Size 18 x 55 in. (45.5 x 139.5 cm)

GAUGE
8 sts + 4 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) in dc. 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.

STITCH EXPLANATION
Shell Work 5 dc in indicated st.
Half-shell Work 3 dc in indicated st.

WRAP

Ch 3; join with sl st in first ch to form a ring.

Row 1: Ch 3 (does not count as a st), work 9 dc in ring; do not join.

Row 2: Ch 3, turn, shell in first dc, (sk next dc, sc in next dc, sk next dc, shell in next dc) twice - 3 shells.

Row 3: Ch 3, turn, shell in first dc, sk next dc, (sc in next dc, sk next 2 dc, shell in next sc, sk next 2 dc) twice, sc in next dc, sk next dc, shell in last dc - 4 shells.

Row 4: Ch 3, turn, half-shell in first dc, sk next dc, sc in next dc, *sk next 2 dc, shell in next sc, sk next 2 dc, sc in next dc; rep from * across to last 2 dc, sk next dc, half-shell in last dc - 3 shells and 2 half-shells.

Row 5: Ch 3, turn, dc in each st across - 25 dc.

Row 6: Ch 3, turn, shell in first dc, *sk next dc, sc in next dc, sk next dc, shell in next dc; rep from * across - 7 shells.

Row 7: Rep Row 4 - 6 shells and 2 half-shells.

Row 8: Ch 1, turn, sc in first dc, *sk next 2 dc, shell in next sc, sk next 2 dc, sc in next dc; rep from * across - 7 shells.

Row 9: Ch 3, turn, shell in first sc, *sk next 2 dc, sc in next dc, sk next 2 dc, shell in next sc; rep from * across - 8 shells.

Rows 10-21: Rep Rows 4-9 twice - 23 shells.

Rows 22 and 23: Rep Rows 4 and 5 - 139 dc.

FINISHING

Edging

From right side, join yarn with sl st anywhere along outside edge of Wrap.

Round 1: Working in sts and ends of rows around all edges of Wrap, work (sc in next st, dc in next 2 sts, trc in next 2 sts, dc in next 2 sts) evenly spaced around. Fasten off.

Weave in ends.
