Quadrangle Wrap

***“Easy wearability.”*** Do you remember ‘Janie’s Grandmother’s Quadrangle Wrap’, a shop favorite from years past? Inspired by the easy wearability of the original, we’ve re-visioned the wrap at a finer gauge, changed the direction of the knitting, dropped the back neckline to sit nicely on the shoulders, and finessed the front edges with small I-cord. Wear it a little differently every day! Pattern includes a detailed tutorial on grafting in garter stitch for a seamless, invisible join. ________________________________________ FINISHED SIZES, BLOCKED See notes on choosing a size below. **XS/S**: Approx. 38"/97cm square; 54"/137cm diagonal length; 27"/69cm back neck to front point. **M/L**: Approx. 44"/112cm square; 62"/158cm diagonal length; 31"/79cm back neck to front point. **XL/XXL**: Approx. 50"/127cm square; 71"/180cm diagonal length; 35"/90cm back neck to front point.

Unlike most garments, the fit has more to do with stature than bust size. MEASURE YOURSELF: With arms outstretched, ask a friend to measure your wingspan from fingertip to fingertip. CHOOSE A SIZE: Choose the square size that has the **diagonal dimension** closest to your wingspan. What if you find yourself between sizes? Here’s where your personal style comes in. If you prefer a more tailored look, choose the smaller size. If you prefer a more dramatic look, choose the larger size. Whatever you choose, this piece is so forgiving you really can’t go wrong!
