Introducing the Askew Wrap – a long, skinny wrap crocheted from point out. This beautiful design is perfect for adding a stylish touch to any outfit, or to stay warm on those chilly nights. With its eye-catching stitches and unique shape, this free crochet pattern is a must-have for any crocheting enthusiast. With the Askew Wrap, you can make a fashion statement no matter the season!

I received quite a few skeins of yarn in various goodie bags at the last Knit & Crochet show I attended. One skein that really caught my eye was JoJoLand Melody Superwash. It was so pretty and squishy and just needed to be worn! At first I planned on a smaller, asymmetrical bandana-type item, but I was so in love that I ordered 2 more skeins and Askew was born.

Askew is an asymmetrical wrap made in a variation of the spider stitch. It increases every other row on one side, and decreases every 4th row on the other, creating a fun wedge shape that makes an appealing wrap or scarf. This pattern includes a written pattern, a video and a chart as well.
