I made this recently for my friend Lynda. She wanted a nice wrap that would stay in place. This one fits the bill perfectly as the shaping means it stays on your shoulders.

 

I used a 6.5mm hook and 8 strands of superfine yarn in 3 colours, a brown ombre,a golden boucle and the rest a kind of mango/orange shade. It's supposed to look like the colours of Autumn. I think it does

 

I didn't do the edging specified in the pattern, I just did a simple sc edging on it.

Very pretty -- I love everything Doris Chan has designed. I think I should start her fan club. I admit, I'm a Doris Chan Junkie. You did her design proud too -- lovely!

Ooh, love it! I had printed that out when the newsletter arrived, but haven't made it. Yours is inspiring me--I love that color, warm but neutral.
