I have had this Blue Moon yarn for several years now. It was bought at Rhinebeck by a dear friend of mine so I could make something for the girls, and I just never could decide what to make. Then it suddenly came to me, and the Little One Wraplet was created. It uses the linen stitch and slow increases to make a wedge shape, then decreases to create the mirror image and make a nice short triangular wraplet. The twins love them!
