A Capella Wrap

"The wrap is created with one long, straight piece that goes up around the shoulders then back down, plus a small back panel, nothing more," says Bylsma. "The springy nature of the ribbed pattern and the unusual construction of this piece make it amazingly adaptable to different body sizes and shapes with just a few minor adjustments to only two pattern sizes, A and B. The length of the long piece and the size of the back panel customize it to your personal size. Be sure to use a wonderful merino wool with a lot of bounce, like those suggested, to ensure the best results. Add ties, a closure, a belt, wear it open-– just make it your own and enjoy!"
