I am waiting, waiting, waiting for some fabric (for my origami wrap) to come in the mail~ oh the agony!
So, while I’ve been so patiently waiting, I decided to play with some rust colored baby-rib knit that I’ve had for ages. I didn’t quite have enough for the origami wrap, but was able to squeeze out enough to make this wrap.
I used an old long sleeve t shirt that I love and kind of traced it’s shape making an extra wide front that I cut in half. It has a wide drape-y collar that I love. It still needs some modifications and the edges are still rough. I may either hem up the edges or do a rolled hem with my serger.
Next time, I will make the arms a little wider and add enough fabric on the collar to make a hood (if there ever is a next time). I think this would make a great cover-up for when you are going yoga class. Ha, the yoga class in my dreams!
Turned out Beautifully Lovely!!
God Bless You and Yours!!!
That’s fabulous! And no pattern? Sheesh…wanna throw some tallent my way? :o)
It just looks fabulous. I love the collar!
I have seen the origami wrap several times, and am not sure what to make it with – what did you use to make this and what did you order to make the origami wrap. What you did is just lovely – I really love it (for more than after yoga!). Reminds me of what my sister got for Christmas:

I love the wrap and I’m sure you’ll master the knitting…
Very nice wrap, it looks great on you… I would love to be able to just create something like that just on the fly!
i love it!
it looks awesome, and so comfy.
Soo cute. Serged would be nice. And love the hoodie idea. I think I prefer this to the origami wrap- it’s more shapely and figure flattering.
This is great Regina. It looks great on you and to just whip it up.. wow! I was just trying on something similar yesterday.
P.S. The paint I use in my sketch book is gouache. And I do LOVE the books. So great to know there really are others like me. How is The Kind Diet? I saw her on Oprah the other day and was intrigued.
Beautiful Regina. And you too! You just know how to wear clothes, lol. I hope that doesn’t read too weird, 🙂
Wonderful!
it is beautiful! good job modifying the pattern!
Regina! That is gorgeous! I think it is way more stylish than the origami wrap. Beautiful work and I love the color.
I love this Wrap! Nice job,you should wear it proudly!
