Part of the Midnite Botanica: A Dark Bloom Collection

Step into the soft glow of twilight with the Hekataion Wrap — a bold yet elegant crochet accessory that blends dramatic intarsia motifs with sleek shaping. This shawl unfolds with a whisper of botanical mystery, airy yet substantial in fingering-weight yarn, and striking in its contrast and drape.

Worked in three sections (two wings and a central panel), the Hekataion combines clean lines with immersive colorwork. Wear it wrapped, pinned, or draped to bring a touch of dark bloom elegance to your wardrobe. 🌙
