Oh stripes…. I love thee! ;-)
You will most definitely love to knit this top-down wrap with its stripes and uneven zigzags. And when the rows get a little long, we switch things up with a few short rows! Finish it up with a garter stitch border done sideways and voilà! You get a generous size wrap that will warm your shoulders, especially knitted in this so soft and luxurious MCS Sport!!
