ACCESSORY


The wrap is worked  at with
a narrow garter stitch edging.
Alternating bands of a textured
stitch and a simple eyelet
lace can be worked either
from the charts or the written
instructions, whichever you
prefer. If you are making the
largest size, you may wish
to use a circular needle to
accommodate the number of
stitches.

Need to
know...
“I wanted a visually interesting
wrap that could be made in
multiple widths, so I combined
a textured pa ern with a simple
eyelet lace. The alternating
diagonals of the pa ern remind
me of hills and valleys. It’s named
a er Conavalla, a peak in the
Wicklow Mountains in Ireland”
