  2. This is lovely - I like the stitch too - it looks like it may work up pretty quickly. I think I will give it a try. Thanks so much for the pattern :-)

    Happy weekend,
    Doris :-)

  3. Question? Should row 1 read *sk 1,dc, ch 1* or is the pattern supposed to decrease with the first row? I've never done a mobius wrap before so I was just wondering before I start.

  6. Hi,
    i'm a follower of your blog, i created the moibus wrap with your pattern and i'm very satisfied, i love my wrap!!
    Now i can say that i understand actually the mobius strip concept, i'm a mathematician, but i didn't get the concept since i have crocheted it. Thanks for sharing!!!
    And so i would ask if i could translate your pattern in italian language and write it down on my blog with all due credits.
    Cheers

  9. Love Love Love the pattern! I have a question. I am an above average sized woman, could you please tell me what I can do to resize the pattern? Do I need to chain more than the original 90 sts, or just continue the rows until desired size? Thank you.

  10. Thank you! This is beautiful! I am planning to make it for my mother-in-law this Christmas.
    And Amy, to answer your question, you would increase the size of the original chain. Continuing the rows would make it longer, not wider.

  11. Thanks for such a great pattern. I made a smaller version to just drape around my neck. It was super quick and looks great.

  13. this is so pretty- thanks for sharing. i'm finally getting around to making it, and wondered if you could tell me what gauge yarn (number) to use- it is a fine yarn? i looked for this yarn and it's discontinued...

    Best Wishes :-)

  15. This is altogether so very lovely!! I would like to make a couple as gifts. This is simply to pretty to pass up. How would I figure to make this larger or smaller?? I have not crocheted for years and have never done Mobius before.?? What size would this one be as it is??

    I appreciate any and all advice or instruction you could give to me. Thank you for sharing such a lovely pattern.

  20. I was a little confused on the twist. Somehow I ended up with a thick stitch going across the middle. I am going to try it again, as I was able to complete it in less than 2 hours. Thanks for the pattern
