Diamond Lace Wrap is an original PlanetJune Accessories crochet pattern by June Gilbank.

Wear this lovely wrap as a rectangular shawl to show off the stunning diamond pattern to the full, or as a lacy scarf. Choose your favourite solid or semi-solid colour and watch the alternating solid and lacy diamonds appear as you crochet. The pattern includes full instructions to make a shawl as deep as you want, or whip up a narrower scarf/wrap in a fraction of the time with equally eye-catching results!

Size: Pattern includes instructions for resizing the length and width of the shawl.

  • Finished shawl sample measures 56” x 15” unblocked; 69” x 17.5” blocked.
  • Finished scarf sample measures 56” x 8.5” unblocked; 67” x 10.5” blocked.

Difficulty: easy/intermediate

Yarn and hook: Yarn of your choice (lace/fingering recommended, but any yarn weight will work with this pattern; using a thicker yarn will increase the size of the stitch pattern and make the resulting shawl bulkier) and an appropriate hook (hook size advice is provided in the pattern) 

  • Main shawl sample used 720m/790yds 2-ply laceweight 70% baby alpaca/10% cashmere/20% silk yarn and a G7 US/4.5mm hook
