I had hoped to complete this wrap created for the “Wrapped in Hugs” project a week ago. Actually, I did finish it off, but then discovered that the piece which had been the right size somehow shrunk. Since it was a corner-to-corner pattern, I’m not sure what happened, but I got back to work adding more border. I suppose it is better to have a piece end up too small rather than too large.
Now, finally, it is truly complete; ends sewn in, and ready to ship off. The final size is 30″ x 60″.
I keep thinking that the weather is going to become too warm for large crochet pieces, but we had some snow here on Saturday. We had a very mild winter, aside from one big blizzard, so a few hours of April snow which was gone by the evening just meant spending the day cozy and crocheting.

Fall will be here before you know it. It will be needed soon either way. I love the colors and your border!
Ack! I’m still waiting for spring to make up its mind to arrive properly.
It is Beautiful!
I’m happy with this stitch choice. It makes it really cozy.
The colors of this throw are stunning! And I’m sure it’s felt very cozy, being under that as you work. Still cold here, too!
So many of the variegated yarns are in soft colors. I was attracted to the vibrancy of this. It’s called ‘Peacock” by Caron, and the name fits the palette perfectly.
That looks great. It’s nice to be able to add borders to embellish or change the size of theorems we create.
It is. And sometime necessary. 🙂
