Mary Henderson’s wrap was inspired by the ever-changing colours of the sea. The all-over lace pattern is worked in a sequence of blue stripes, created using the extensive colour palette offered by Jamieson’s of Shetland’s Spindrift wool. The design can be worn poncho style with buttons attached along the side edge, or as a loose shoulder cowl with the buttons on the cast-off edge. Our sample has buttons in both locations so that the wrap can be worn either way.
