Wilson Wrap
My mother was a Wilson. They were stout-hearted Scotch-Irish United Empire Loyalists who trekked northward to remain loyal to the British crown just prior to the American Revolution. As a child, I loved hearing the wooly tales of their survival in Upper Canada; they’ve inspired the Wilson Wrap.
This common sense wrap commemorates the early Wilsons. It is simple and warm, shaped in a long, shallow crescent and trimmed with a prim lace border. Wilson is an easy shawl to knit, using 6 basic increases every right side row. The classic wavy lace edging is knitted on at the end as the shawl is being bound off.
