Transport yourself to the idyllic French countryside in spring with the Floral De Lis Wrap, a design inspired by fields of wildflowers blooming under a soft, pastel sky. This captivating mosaic slip-stitch pattern creates an intricate floral motif, all while using just one color per row, making it approachable for knitters of all skill levels.

Shaped as an oversized rectangle, the Floral De Lis Wrap can be knit longer or shorter by altering the number of pattern repeats to suit your preference: a generously sized wrap for elegant draping or a smaller version perfect for cozy, everyday wear. Its versatility makes it an essential accessory, whether you’re sipping tea in a garden, wandering through quaint villages, or adding a touch of charm to your wardrobe.

Let the Floral De Lis Wrap bring the romance of springtime blooms to your knitting needles and your style.

Pattern Overview:

• Construction: Invisible cast on, then worked in a pattern that is repeated to create the length of the wrap. Once the mosaic work is done, stitches are picked up around the edge and worked to create eyelet lace. The wrap is finished with a picot bind off.

• Techniques: The shawl is worked in a mosaic pattern, using only one color at a time from charted instructions. This technique creates a stunning visual effect without the complexity of managing multiple yarns simultaneously. If you’re new to colorwork, this pattern is an excellent introduction to mosaic knitting, as it simplifies the process while still delivering a striking result.

• Ease of Knitting: Despite its intricate appearance, this shawl is as easy to knit as stripes. The mosaic technique ensures that you only need to handle one color per row, making it accessible even for hesitant knitters.
