Instructions
This wrap is not my design, I found the photos and the pattern on the Internet, but, unfortunately, I don’t have the original source.
The wrap is done in the rounds and it starts in the center, as shown in the diagram. In round 22 there are arm openings. Arm openings are marked with arrows in round 22 on the pattern, and with the word Armsgat. In that round, on the marked places you should do 1 single crochet where the arrows point, while between the arrows you should chain 35 for both openings. In the next round follow the pattern and do stitches over other stitches as well as over the the chains 35.
If your yarn is heavier, place arm openings earlier that round 22, and if you’re working with lighter yarn, place them later than shown on the Diagram. In any case, you should measure the piece on your body while you’re working, just to make sure the openings are in the right position.
Actually I checked the original pattern and it’s says in a row 26 you need to omit 9 elements (36 chains) to make an armpit, not the 22 row.
Thanks for the correction. I’m sure that the armpit can be started several rounds before or after the original instructions, depending on the yarn and hook that we’re using, as well as each individual tension. The best thing is to measure the piece directly onto the person who is going to wear it.
However, I really appreciate the constructive comment, it will definitely mean a lot to all crocheters. 🙂

It’s a Polish crochet magazine that doesn’t exist anymore. I had it but unfortunately can’t find it. I’m glad that my cellphone was able to matched the picture on your website and find it for me. The copy I found was very difficult to read. I was looking at it and look at my previous vest that I made to get it right. OMGsh I’m so glad that you have it on your blog. Thank you
Hi Benia!
I’m really happy that this post helped you and that you can now make this lovely piece. I must say I also enjoyed crocheting it, and would love to repeat it again some day. Thank you for the nice comment and good luck with this great wrap! 🙂
Oh,dear! I had no idea. Thanks for letting me know. I’ll see what I can do about it.
