Sweet Honeycomb Super Wrap
Crochet Pattern by Stitch in Progress
Hello Underground Crafters! I am so excited to share this super wrap with you!
It really is super…super stylish, super long, and super fun to crochet!
I love, love, love to make patterns that are a repeat of something geometric and this honeycomb trellis stitch is one of my favorites. It is very easy and looks simply stunning when worked with a a stiff cotton yarn or a bulky yarn. The key is to use something sturdy that will hold the stitches wide open.
I used the Paintbox Yarns Cotton Aran generously supplied by LoveCrochet and when I saw all those fun summer colors in one pack of 10 balls, I was all in!
At Stitch In Progress, I focus on Learn More, Make More, so I usually provide a tutorial for all the stitches that I learn and use. If you would like to see how this stitch pattern is created, you can check out my honeycomb trellis stitch tutorial post for the honeycomb trellis stitch pattern.
This wrap is very long, but it can also be resized easily if you want a shorter wrap.

Tips and Other Ideas
- If you would like to make this wrap shorter in length, simply use a multiple of 5 sts + 2 to determine your foundation chain.
- If you would like your wrap to be wider, simply add more repeats of rows 3 – 6.
- Always end the stitch pattern on a row of sc (row 3 or 6 and then add another row of sc to finish the piece).

ABSOLUTELY LOVE this and can’t wait to start on it , thank you.
A lovely piece indeed! I have some beautiful organic cotton yarn that I plan to use in making it.

Thanks alot!
Blocking is always a good option!
