If you are wanting to try lace, this wrap is a great place to start as the pattern is on a knit background - no purling! And there is a resting row between lace rows, in case you have to go back. It is a great way to showcase a colorful yarn, like the Jojoland, and the directions come with instructions on how to make it wider and longer. Just be sure to adjust your yardage accordingly! It can be worn more than one way, always a plus with an accessory like this.
