The Dotted Wrap Crochet Pattern

I’m not usually one to make shawls or wraps but I thought this yarn would be perfect for a spring wrap! The Dotted Wrap uses a Fine (2) weight yarn which makes it perfect for a lighter spring accessory. I used the color “Blue Thunder” from the Dotted Line yarn by Lion Brand! 

I was on the fence about making a triangle shawl but ultimately decided to go with something a little different than the norm! I’m really glad that I went with a parallelogram shape! Check out my Summer Nights Shawl! It’s the only other shawl/wrap i’ve designed.

I used a really fun and basic pattern repeat throughout the wrap. Once you get past the increase section it’s smooth sailing. Even the increase and decrease area are easy since you are only adding or taking a way 1 stitch on 1 side of your work.

Do not tie off and do not turn, continue to trim.

Trim:

Row 1: Working along the straight edge of your wrap, Ch 2. Work Dc stitches evenly along the side of the wrap. Stop when you get to the decrease area. Exact stitch count is not crucial but you will want to end in a multiple of 4 + 1. (sample wrap had 221 Dc) TURN.

Row 2: Ch 1, *Sc in next St, Sk 1 St, 5 Dc in next St, Sk 1 St. Repeat from * across row. Do not turn.

Continue around the remainder of the shawl with single crochets. Join to first St with a Sl St.

Be sure to lay your wrap flat and block properly to prevent/fix curling.

Weave in all ends.
