Eliza Williams' Wrap

Discover the enchanting story of Eliza Williams, the daughter of Colonel Brandon’s first beloved, Elizabeth Williams, in our latest knitting pattern. While Jane Austen’s original text reveals very little about Eliza’s life, we know she was entrusted to Colonel Brandon’s care as a small child, and he dedicated himself to her well-being. This beautiful character holds a special place in the hearts of readers, and now, thanks to Amanda Grange’s interpretation in “Colonel Brandon’s Diary,” we can glimpse an imagined future for Eliza. You can read a snippet of Grange's work on her website. Fans of the recent BBC adaptation, especially the version with a script by Andrew Davies, will also appreciate this unique portrayal of Eliza.

This knitting wrap pattern is inspired by these captivating sources and is designed to provide immense pleasure and fun as you knit. The pattern is CHARTED and includes complete written instructions, specific techniques outlined in the footnotes, and detailed photo illustrations to clarify key points during the setup.

Whether you are a beginner or an experienced knitter, you’ll find this pattern accessible and enjoyable.
