I am trying to find where I can purchase the pattern called "Crochet Twist Wrap", it was pictured inside the front cover of "Crochet today!" July/Aug 2007. My favorite part is how it intertwines in the front. I found it on the Moda Dea web site but still can't find where I can order it. I live in a pretty small town, Hobby Lobby and Wal-Mart are the only sources I have locally. Any help would be greatly appreciated. :hug
Here is the link to the photo, it is the wrap on the top right.

Or if anyone knows of a similiar pattern that is free, that would be great.

I googled it and found this place.
Studio Cards (http://www.hookandneedledesigns.com/studio_cards.htm)
I've never heard or bought from them so I can't give you any reviews on the place, you might even check out E-Bay and see if someone on there is selling it.
Hope it helps.

It's called a Mobius Wrap.

Can't you just crochet any wrap that you find on the net for free, and then make splits on the ends........ sew the splits of one side into a loop, and then, when you finish, push one side of the split (from the other end) through the loop, then sew those two ends together? Is this clear:think

:yes Thanks, RoseRed, I have several patterns for Mobius type wraps, however I really liked the looks of this one in particular.

:hugThanks Ladycrochet.Yes, I totally understand what you are saying, makes perfect sense. I seem to be suffering from a bit of a brain drain lately, which might make coming up with the how-to more difficult than it would be normally...have just finished dealing with attorneys to close my mother's estate. :(
I just wanted something pretty, simple and wearable. Plus, I think the stitch pattern they used on this one really pretty.

Hmmmmmm - doesn't look like any Mobius I've seen before. Nice wrap. Here's a free one that looks like rather a variation on your twist wrap. http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/carols-clever-little-shawl

I've phoned Coats & Clark before to request 1 of those freebies that WM has (WM is my only source here for yarn, etc.) & they've been very helpful - mailed it right out to me!
Maybe they'd do the same w/this studio card? Just a thot =)

That is gorgeous! This is what happens when you ski, over a post quickly instead of actually reading it lololol :rofl

:cheer Wow! was I ever surprised, I ordered the pattern on the 7th and received it today. Now that was fast and to make it even better they enclosed a free studio card, the one for the hobo bag and scarf. The total cost was $5 including shipping.
:c9 The studio cards are really nice, laminated and include all the needed info, plus stitch definitions for that particular pattern.
Hazlecreek, Thanks again, I most likely would have never found them without your help :hug. Definitely a good experience :yay
