There’s something to be said for an elegant wrap, and while I envision myself wearing it with a cocktail dress, let’s be honest—I’m more likely to wear it with a pair of jeans and Swedish clogs. Spring Equinox is a lightweight rectangle wrap with feminine details, knit in a beautiful blend of fiber that lends sheen and drape. The result is so incredibly lovely and wearable; it will become a quick favorite.

Spring Equinox is knit from side to side using two strands of yarn (held double) with a simple lace repeat that is worked on both the right side and the wrong side. If you’d prefer a lighter weight wrap, you can work the design with a single strand of yarn. As written, the wrap will feel a bit heavy while you’re knitting it, but it will relax and expand into a lovely mid-weight accessory when blocked.
