Two neutral sandy shades create this richly paneled rectangular wrap which is useful as well as beautiful—it coordinates readily with so many outfits in your wardrobe. It would also work up well in a solid color.

Instructions for both the lace center and the edging are charted.

Skill Level: intermediate lace. The center section, which begins with a provisional cast-on, requires basic lace stitches (yo, k2 tog, skp, sk2p, and s2kp). The edging is knitted on with dpn’s double joins are required to round the corners.

Finished measurements after blocking: 21” x 66 ½ ” (includes edging)
