The color and the effect of the big eyelets reminded me of the wonderful Granny Smith Apples and so I couldn’t resist naming it that way. Fresh and crisp in greens, just perfect for the summer~

The wrap is knitted from the bottom up starting with a beautiful lace border, followed by a simple stitch pattern topped off with a big eyelet lace row, which invokes the shape of an apple. The big needle size makes this project grow fast!

The pattern is fully written and also has a lace and eyelet chart.
