Why make a chunky crochet wrap pattern?

I have always been a fan of quick and easy makes and I think there’s something wonderful about wrap crochet patterns like this that really elevate your outfits and make people say ‘wow!’.

The beauty of working with chunky yarn is that it’s really fast to make so great if you’re a beginner, need a quick gift for someone or have some leftover chunky yarn that you need to use up.

What’s more is that not only is it a crochet wrap (it’s just made from one big rectangle) so you can pop a button or tiny seam to make a cozy crochet poncho or wear it loosely as a shawl instead. So many options to choose from!

Yarn

To make my version of the chunky crochet wrap I used Rico Essentials Alpaca Blend Chunky. It’s 50% acrylic, 30% wool, 20% alpaca, 90m/50g. It creates a really soft and luxurious crochet wrap so feels wonderful on your skin.

I used 1 ball each of:

• Powder 004
• Biege 002
• Light Grey 006
• Medium Grey 007
• Mocha 014

You will need a total of approximately 425m/465yds.

Tension and Sizing

The chunky wrap pattern is one size fits all – approx 58 x 50cm (22.85 x 19.5″).

12 sts and 8 rows measure 10cm x 10cm (4″ x 4″) over main stitch pattern repeat using an 8mm hook, or size needed to obtain correct tension.

Materials

Along with your yarn, you will need the following:

• A 8mm(L) crochet hook- my favourites are Furls Streamline Swirl crochet hooks or Clover Amour crochet hooks.
• Scissors
• Tapestry Needle
