Summer is finally here! We don’t get very many warm months where I live, which makes me even more grateful for this wonderful season.
One of my favourite things to do during the summer is sit out on the patio with the kids and roast marshmallows. The days may be warm, but the nights still tend to be cool, which is why I made this cozy summertime boho style wrap. It is perfect to keep my arms warm, and light and airy enough to bring along for whatever summer adventures await!
I have written out and posted the free pattern for the Boho Knit Wrap below on this page.

Betty Goldberg says
What do you mean when you say to repeat 5 times for the middle – does that mean to repeat the broken rib and the netting stitch.
Thanks in advance
Betty G.
Hi Betty, it means to complete the following instruction five times: Work 6 rows in Broken Rib Stitch, followed by 12 rows in Netting Stitch
Thank you for your response.
Thank you for your response. I appreciate your help
Row 3 differs from row 2 ending the repeat with a YRN and ending the row with K2. Would this add a stitch to each row
I started this pattern , completed the rib stitch , counted my stitches after each row. I ten started the netting stitch, completed row 1 and row 2. At this point I still have 243 stitches on my needle. After row three , I only had 242 stitches . After taking the row out three times, I counted the stitches in row 2 and had 243 stitches. Something was wrong in row 3. At the beginning of that row you have a knit one slip one , K2, PSSO both knitted stitches. This is where I loose that stitch as there is no YRN before the slip one. If I continue to do this , I will continue to loose another stitch. Was there supposed to be a YRN before that S1 after the K1 at the beginning of the row ? Thank you. Helen
Hi Helen, the YRN is at the end of the repeat for row 3. Try working on a small swatch first to see if that helps with understanding the stitch pattern.
