Zigzag wrap - free pattern


Here is the pattern for the wrap that I mentioned in my previous post. It is called the Zigzag wrap. I used light worsted weight/DK yarn and size G/4.00 mm crochet hook. This wrap needs careful blocking. I didn't do it properly. I wanted to photograph it before the natural light went out and so removed the pins even before it was completely dry. 


Zigzag Wrap
Materials required 
DK/light worsted weight yarns approximately 575 yards
Crochet hook size G/4.00 mm
(or)
any yarn and a suitable hook.

Size 
The wrap measures 60 inches long and 16 inches wide after blocking. 

I have written the pattern using standard American terms.

Stitches/abbreviations used
** - repeat instructions between asterisks as many times as directed
ch - chain
 dc - double crochet (UK - treble)

    1. Looks like the "chain 95" is the set-up/foundation row, then you turn and start row 1 (using uk tr's in place of us dc). I might have to break out my hooks and give it a go.

    2. Yes, you will start by making ch 95 and work the first row into the chains. US dc is equivalent to UK treble. Sorry, made a mistake there. I have corrected it.
