Finally! I've been working on and talking about this idea for a long time. Well, here it is. I'm still toying with the idea of putting sleeves on it, too. I'm working on sleeves now, and will post pictures with the sleeve option soon.
In the meantime, here is the sleeveless wrap:

I used Knit Picks Merino Style yarn in color dusk. The back is knit from the center out in a flower medallion. The fronts are knit from the top down and wrapped with long i-cords. The neckline has a shawl collar and the bottom has a ribbed ruffle.

As always, comments, questions and contribution are very welcome. Happy Knitting!

Best regards,

Kristin
