Common Ground Wrap
Inspired by heirloom textiles of bygone eras, Common Ground Wrap celebrates traditional cherished crafts and time-proven techniques.
A romantic and nostalgic design reinvented for the modern wardrobe – this is a heritage piece that you will treasure for years to come.
This sleek summer-weight wrap is worked in two pieces and joined at the center using Kitchener stitch. Geometric lattice borders at each end form soft scallops which are adorned with delicate tassels.
A simple but tactile lace stripe forms the body of the wrap, creating an open and ethereal result.
