Diamond Sage Wrap Crochet Pattern Download

Description

Inspired by her mother’s love of beading, designer Jill Wright made sure no prestringing is needed to make this elegant laceweight wrap. The beads add weight and a bit of shimmer, and the repeated filetlike cutwork lace keeps the crocheting interesting. Worked from end to end, the lace pattern is reversed at the center of the wrap for symmetry.
