All Buttoned Up (Elinor's Wrap)
This wrap, designed with Elinor’s character in mind, will become an enduring favorite you pull out of your closet again and again. In essence, the design is a combination of three squares joined together by dozens of petite buttons. The key element of this design is its versatility: the squares can be joined in a triangular shape to form a shawl with exquisite drape OR all three squares can be buttoned together in a row to create a rectangular wrap/stole. Join just two squares together, leaving the center buttons undone for the neckline and the top edges for armholes and you have a tunic with a modern edge. The possibilites and amusement are endless. I can’t wait to see your interpretation and styling ideas!
