Highclere Wrap
Inspired by the marriage of simplicity and elegance found in Jacobean architecture, with symmetrical wings stretching out on either side of the central triangle, this piece also takes notes from the flapper styles of the 20s with asymmetric colors and joyous flare!
Explore a variety of stitchwork in this expressive piece that brings to mind strings of beaded pearls, lace, lines, and windows into other worlds. Wear it as a triangle shawl or loop the ends through the center point for a delightfully unique scarf!
The pattern itself includes color coded instructions to help clarify color changes as well as detailed instructions for all special stitches including post stitches, working into the 3rd loop of hdc stitches, and optional chainless stitches. This piece is worked from the center point out and then with mirrored wings joined onto the sides of the upper part of the triangle, working across the ends of the rows. Guidance on modifications is included throughout the pattern.
