WICKERWORK a classic triangle shawl featuring the beautiful Wickerwork Pattern which spreads out to incorporate, first, eyelets and then a stunning lace pattern. It is a fun and interesting knit worked from centre top down, starting with a garter tab, with increases made at the edges and center to form the triangle shape. Directions are charted and written out, so you can pick whichever works best for you.

While the original Blanket Wrap was knit in Jill Draper Makes Stuff Empire, later versions feature various Woolfolk yarn, ranging from fingering weight TYND (shawlette), to DK weight TOV DK (shawl), to worsted weight TOV (wrap)to bulky weight LUFT (blanket wrap).
