This is a beginner lace rectangular wrap for hand knitting. The lacy holes and empty stitches make it feel light. This wrap is ideal for a late-summer evening when a jacket would be too much but some warmth is required.

The wrap is rectangular, around 20” x 55”. There is no gauge requirement but set a tension that is suitable for the yarn you choose to use.

I used five 50g balls of yarn. I used a variegated soft cotton yarn to give some colour changes but this would work well with a tonal or even a solid colour.

This wrap benefits from being blocked into a rectangular shape; it really opens up the lace.
