Notes
The wrap is worked in one piece from the bottom left hand side, up and over the shoulder in vertical rows. Add 2/3 buttons for each side to the inside back (if desired) to enable “side seams” for a long cardigan effect.
For baby wearing Mums, make the next size up (ie. If you are size 10, make a 12-14) for a cosy comfortable spring wrap.
