Long enough to go nicely around one’s neck and shoulders, Cedar Cove is the perfect cozy wrap. Inspired by Shetland lace shawls, this accessory is edged in a traditional feather-and-fan stitch pattern and is cast on beginning with a center square, which is knit from the center out. The sides are knit flat and then a long circular needle is used to work the band and edging in the round. Be sure to pick two highly-contrasting yarns, so the bands and edging contrast nicely with the lacework. Both charted and written instructions are included.

In 2022, the Yarn Mountain colorway used in this project was dyed by Aimee of La Bien Aimee for the Black Mountain Yarn Shop in the Appalachian Mountains of North Carolina. If this colorway is no longer available, the Jasper colorway is a similar and beautiful option.
