Notes
In this pattern, the yarn is cut after EVERY row, no matter how many colors are used.
ALWAYS leave an 8-inch tail at the beginning AND end of each row, unless you intend to weave them in.
Customizing the Size
To add length to the wrap, repeat the Row 1 "[ch 9, FSC 5]" repeat as many times as desired. To make the wrap wider, simply repeat Rows 2 - 7 as many times as desired, ending on a Row 6 repeat.
Note that the length "shrinks up" a LOT as you crochet additional rows and the lace pattern appears. Row 1 will be significantly longer than the finished wrap. This fabric had a lot of movement and stretch to it, in both dimensions.
If you are determined to avoid the FSC stitch, you would need to just ch 111 for Row 1. Then, in Row 2, work into the chains instead of stitches. Be sure to mark the chains that would have had stitches worked into them with stitch markers, so you know where to work Row 2.
