Library Wrap

The Library Wrap is a cozy, textured shawl with a soft boomerang shape that drapes beautifully. Its clean ribbed lines, both vertical and horizontal, resemble books neatly stacked on shelves. The stitch pattern offers **a fresh, modern take on crochet**, with a unique texture created by variations of the extended single crochet stitch. To help you get comfortable with the stitches, it includes a swatch section with a chart and step-by-step photos - perfect for practicing before starting the shawl! You can also use the swatch instructions to create a rectangle wrap: scarf or stole. **MATERIALS** - Yarn: Malabrigo Rios; worsted weight; 210 yd (192 m) per 100 g skein; 100% merino wool, Water Green colorway RIO083, 3 skeins in total - Hook: U.S. H/8 (5 mm) - Yarn needle to weave in ends - Stitch markers **GAUGE** The gauge is not crucial for this pattern. 16 sts and 12 rows = 4" (10 cm) in width and 2⅜" (6 cm) in height, after blocking, worked in the main stitch pattern. **YARDAGE AND MEASUREMENTS** 1.

My patterns may look unusual at first only because the technique is new to you, just like your first chain or single crochet once was. After a little practice, it feels easy and natural.* > ✦ **Subscribe** for new patterns, stitch > experiments, and insights into my > creative process: > www.cupofstitches.com/subscribe > >✦ You can also find me on: [Instagram][2] ~ [TikTok][3] ~ [Facebook][4] [1]: https://www.cupofstitches.com/newsletter [2]: https://www.instagram.com/ravliki/ [3]: https://www.tiktok.com/@ravliki [4]: https://www.facebook.com/crochetravliki/
