Apex
Apex is knitted in one piece like a scarf with buttonholes along the row end edges.
By working buttonholes on each end of the wrap the knitter can use the buttonholes on one side as a guide to placing the buttons. When sewing the buttons on, place them directly above the buttonholes and sew the holes shut. The button holes on the opposite side are left open.
The wrap is written for one size only, but by adding or subtracting any multiple of 10 sts and adjusting the number of repeats the width can be easily adjusted. The length can also be adjusted in a similar fashion by adding or subtracting repeats either side of the centre back.

This pattern was originally featured in the May 2018 Artisan Crate from Knitcrate using using Fleece Artist Tree Wool; 70% Superwash Merino, 30% Tencel; 355 yds (325 m) / 100 g in colorway Catalyst.
Tension on 3.5 mm with this yarn was 25 sts and 33 rows. The size of the wrap using this yarn with this tension is 124 cm x 32 cm.
If this or another space dyed yarn is used to make the Apex Wrap you can adjust tension to achieve the desired colour pooling or make use of an intentional colour pooling planner.
