The Prince Wrap is a small, unisex, triangular wrap made of garter stitch and eyelets. It’s quick and easy, yet lovely to look at.
The eyelet mesh sections bring interest into the wrap, while still keeping its unisex appeal. Made with one skein of King Cole Drifter, it’s a smallish neckerchief, however, if you want to make it larger, just check out the Getting Started section.
The yarn for this design was provided by King Cole. All opinions are my own.

Is there a mistake in these instructions:
Rows 150-198 ends (102 stitches at end of row 198)
Rows 214-220 ends (102 stitches at end of row 198)
This look like such beautiful yarn, I hope to use it, but I eant to be sure about the instructions before I start the project.
Is it possible to make the shawl larger?
I just forgot to change the stitch count at the end, but the pattern itself is correct. You can just keep going if you want to make the shawl larger.
I agree, the instructions are wrong. I’m currently on 200-219. I assumed this was the last part but it’s getting longer and longer and looks NOTHING like the photos, it’s not even triangular at all. 214-219 doesn’t finish it, there are no instructions to finish. No k2tog, no ssk. I’m so disappointed and now stuck
It’s not going to look right until it’s blocked, as the lace pulls before it’s blocked. I promise, this is how the sample was made. I added in the bind off at the end, sorry I missed that.
Only four more rows to go before I start on the second lave panel. It is looking good, and it is the correct shape, though will obviously benefit from being blocked when it is finished. I will probably make it a wee bit larger as I will carry on to roughly the end of the ball. I used Colorado for this one, but have bought a different double knitting yarn to make a second wrap.
