Floating Wrap
Inspired by delicate snowflake doilies, this stunning wrap turns heads. The pure beauty of crochet shines as it floats around your body. Wear it as a shawl, or crossed and tied behind your back as a top, or twisted around your waist as a skirt. You will find that you will want to keep coming back to it day after day. The wrap is constructed of motifs that are joined as you go and the edging is added last. As with all my patterns, the motifs and construction are both written out and diagrammed in symbols.
