Adventurer

Introducing the Adventurer Wrap: a beautifully crafted garment inspired by a traditional Irish design that a dear friend shared with me after her enchanting trip to Ireland. This unique knitted piece wraps around you, offering a comforting embrace reminiscent of a bear hug. The added charm of five wooden buttons not only enhances its aesthetic appeal but also provides functional versatility, allowing you to open one side for ease of wear.

Yarn: For this project, I recommend using Cascade Eco Yarn in the stunning shade of Yakima Heather (9459), which complements the design perfectly. Needles: You will need US size 10.5 (6.5 mm) needles to achieve the best results. Gauge: The expected gauge is 16 stitches x 23 rows in pattern, ensuring an ideal fit.

Yardage: Depending on the size you choose, you will need approximately 180 (200, 220, 240) yards of yarn. Sizes: The Adventurer Wrap is available in four sizes: S (M, L, XL), catering to a variety of body types with bust measurements ranging from 30” – 33” (35” – 37”, 39” - 41”, 43” – 45”). Finished measurements: Size S measures 58” in length and 20.5” in height; Size M is 60” long and also 20.5” high; Size L measures 62” in length and 21” in height, while Size XL is 64” long and 21.5” in height.

Accessories: This pattern calls for 5 wooden buttons, each measuring 3/4 of an inch, to add a touch of rustic elegance. Whether you are a seasoned knitter or just starting your creative journey, the Adventurer Wrap is not just a garment; it's a perfect project that beautifully combines comfort, style, and a nod to Irish heritage. Cozy up with this delightful pattern, and let your crafting adventure begin!
