Crochet Wrap with Closure
This Crochet Wrap with CLOSURE allows you to close the comfy crochet wrap and leave your hands free to move about. No more shifting or falling from your shoulders. Uses a super easy crochet stitch! Crochet beginner friendly project.
This crochet wrap uses a soft #5 bulky yarn that allows for a lovely drape. The stitch used, the easy to learn crochet parquet stitch, creates a slightly open weave that offsets the “thickness” of the #5 yarn. This results in a wonderfully comfortable crochet wrap that is perfect for a little added warmth on cooler days.
Crochet Beginner Friendly
Everything about this design contributes to an overall crochet beginner friendly wearable. The bulky weight yarn helps the project work up faster. The yarn used here is super soft and not at all heavy. The term “bulky” denotes something thick and uncomfortable which is the exact opposite of the end result!
Although this yarn is super inexpensive (Walmart), it is surprisingly cushiony! The easy crochet parquet stitch (a row of double crochets and a row of single crochets) is perfect for a crochet beginner!

I just finished mine, Sylvia and I love it! You’ve got to stop showing us projects that I want to make for someone else but then have a hard time giving up! This one was so fast, easy, fun and gorgeous in the Premier Puzzle yarn. I used the color Backgammon. It’s so soft and a little stretchy…so perfect. Thanks for your terrific step-by-instruction, so easy to follow. Going to make one for myself next and I can’t wait.
Yay! It makes me so happy to hear that you found the pattern easy and fun and wearable! THank you so much for taking the time to let us know here in the comments.
Best,
Sylvia
