Pieces Wrap
Pieces Wrap is all about the colors and wonderful squishy garter stitch. it’s worked in one piece, but in three phases. First you knit a center diamond in one direction, then another picking up stitches from the previous diamond. Finally, you work a faded garter stitch border around the whole thing. this wrap is both easy and fun!
