Concept and Design

With the Emmaline wrap, I knew I wanted to make an open and airy design that would be nice for Spring and Summer. I decided on a larger mesh / lace sections with some single crochet in between to break up the mesh sections. This is a great beginner project because it uses simple stitches and works up very quickly with bulky weight yarn. I’m already thinking that this stitch pattern would look great at a bathing suit cover up! The Emmaline wrap is made using a 6 row repeat and can be made to your desired length. Fringe is fun but, of course, optional. 😊

Yarn

WeCrochet has so many great yarns, I am slowly working my way through many of them. When I designed this wrap, I already had this yarn in mind. I had seen a few other makers use it on Instagram and I also received some bare Billow to hand dye. My first thought when I picked it up was how buttery soft and squishy it was. The only thing left to do was pick a color but that turned out to be quite difficult! If I made another Emmaline wrap (or two!), I would use Tea Rose or Swell. The whole line is gorgeous and you really can’t go wrong with any color.

Yarn, pouch, and ruler all available from WeCrochet

Billow is a bulky (#5) weight yarn and is 100% cotton. It was really nice to work with and the wrap is lightweight yet still warm. I used every last inch of 6 hanks and my wrap turned out pretty large, if you are aiming for a smaller wrap and not planning on fringe, you could get away with 4-5 hanks. Ideally, you can substitute with any sock thru worsted (#1-4) weight yarn of your choosing. Just know that your hook size and yardage will vary from mine.

Thank you to WeCrochet for providing the yarn for this project!

  • Any bulky (#5) weight yarn. I used WeCrochet’s Billow yarn in Ice Lily (6 hanks), approximately 720 yards.
  • US size K/10.5 (6.5 mm) hook, or size needed to obtain gauge
  • Tapestry needle

Gauge

  • 6 SC and 5.5 rows = 2 inches
  • Finished size is approximately 17.5 inches wide and 78 inches long (not including fringe)

Ch(s) = chain(s)

Ch-1 sp = chain 1 space

DC = double crochet

  • You can easily alter the size of your wrap by adjusting the number of starting chains, just chain an even number.
  • Chain 1 at beginning of row does not count as a stitch.
  • Chain 4 at beginning of row counts as 1 double crochet and 1 chain 1 space.
  • Each chain 1 space in the mesh section counts as 1 stitch in the final row count.
  • When working in the turning chain on double crochet rows, work last stitch in either the 2nd or 3rd chain from the bottom. I found that working in the 2nd chain gave a straighter edge.

Ch 58

Row 1: SC in 2n ch from the hook and in each ch across to end. (st count = 57 SC)

Row 2: Ch 1 and turn. SC in each st across to end of row. (st count = 57 SC)

Row 3: Ch 4 and turn. Skip the 1st and 2nd sts. DC in the 3rd st. *Ch 1, skip 1, DC in next st. Repeat from * to end of row. (st count = 29 DC, 28 ch-1 sps)

*Note: Ch 4 at beginning counts as 1 DC and 1 ch-1 sp. This is the same for every DC row in the mesh section.

Row 4: Ch 4 and turn. Skip 1st st and ch-1 sp. DC in next st. *Ch 1, skip 1 ch sp, DC in next st. Repeat from * to end of row working the last DC in the top of the turning ch from the previous row. (st count = 29 DC, 28 ch-1 sps)

            *Note: After the first set up row in the mesh section, you will always skip ch-1 sps and work DCs in the previous row’s DCs.

Rows 5 thru 7: repeat Row 4

Row 8: Ch 1 and turn. SC in each st and ch-1 sp across to end of row. The last SC is worked in the top of the turning chain from the previous row. (st count = 57 SC)

Row 9: Ch 1 and turn. SC in each st across to end of row. (st count = 57 SC)

Rows 10 thru 128: Repeat Rows 3 – 9, respectively, or until desired length.

Finish off and weave in all ends. Block as needed.

Fringe

On each end, I attached 29 sets of fringe to every other stitch. Begin in first st and end in last st.

Each set is made of 3 12-inch strands.

I used a larger hook to pull my yarn through each stitch. Pull strands through the loop to secure in place – pull snug.

Trim ends to desired length.

*Note: If you use the same yarn and to the same length as I did, you will be 2 strands short on the fringe. I made 2 sets of fringe with just 2 strands instead of 3 but you can’t tell 😊
