This cool cotton wimple will shade you from the worst of the summer heat with a curve of graceful leaves growing from a lacy garden trellis. If worked in an alpaca or wool blend it would make a stunning winter accessory as well.

Pattern includes instructions for a full-size wimple covering head to shoulders, a more standard cowl height and a summery circular scarf.

Directions for a less leafy, more streamlined border treatment also offered.

Stitch patterns are both charted and written out in full.

Full wimple measures 15 inches high and 29 inches around.
