TENSION 17 sts and 14 rows to measure 10x10cm (4x4in) over main stitch patt using a 4.5mm hook or size needed to obtain correct tension NOTES The wrap is worked from top to bottom in one long row, so you will be working dc stitches in the back loop only at each end of the row for the sleeve rib, and then the main stitch pattern in the centre of the row. The long edges of the rib portion are seamed to make sleeves on each end. For instructions on how to wear the wrap, see www.simplycrochetmag.co. uk/wrap-top-video-issue-41 The texture of the main stitch pattern is achieved by working htr stitches into either the front loop only (fl) or the back loop only (bl). Where a standard htr abbreviation is used, work a htr stitch as normal, using both the top loops.
