Urban Wrap Reviewed by Vickie Hensley on 2011-02-09 **
I just completed the back of this wrap, but upon reading all the negative reviews I'm very hesitant if I should continue on with the front sides. The pattern I wish had a diagram of how to put the pieces together, right now I'm still wondering how to do so but will have to figure it out once I get the fronts made if I do decide to go further with it. I am making mine with Home Spun (NOUVEAU). This yarn is beautiful and love the softness but have to say it is difficult to crochet with, the fibers split so easlily and very hard to see the stitches when working a piece.
