Flowers for Eryn Wrap Crochet Pattern Download

Description

This wrap was inspired by designer Tracy St. John’s love of recycling vintage techniques into fresh concepts. The dichotomy of traditionally delicate Irish crochet paired with robust, slightly fuzzy yarn results in a classic update of a timeless technique. The seemingly complicated floral motifs at the center and ends of the wrap are set off beautifully by the simplicity of the shell-stitch panels and mesh borders. The length of the wrap is easily adjusted by making the shell-stitch panels longer or shorter to suit you.
