Viennese Lace Wrap

This lightweight wrap pattern is the perfect accessory for cooler spring and fall evenings, or for those who feel the chill of air conditioning during the summer months. Heavier than a traditional shawl yet lighter than a full sweater, it’s crafted from sport weight yarn, making it both stylish and functional. Designed for knitters with an intermediate skill level, this wrap knits up quickly, especially if you already have some experience with lace knitting techniques. The pattern features two distinct lace stitches, which are clearly written out line by line and also provided in chart form for your convenience.

The finished dimensions of this beautiful wrap are 18 inches by 72 inches, but it can easily be customized to be larger by adding a repeat in the pattern. For an added touch of elegance, the instructions also include an optional crocheted edging, allowing you to personalize your wrap to suit your style. (If you choose not to add the optional edging, no crochet hooks are required.)

This pattern is versatile and adaptable, making it suitable for a variety of occasions—from casual outings to more formal events. To ensure the best results, any heavy fingering weight or sport weight yarn with a gauge of 4 sts/inch in lace stitch will work wonderfully. Most knitters find that using a size U.S. #6 needle (4.00mm) yields the best results for this lovely wrap.

Whether you’re looking to expand your knitting skills or create a thoughtful gift, this wrap pattern offers both beauty and practicality. Download the pattern today and start creating your very own lightweight wrap that you’ll cherish for years to come!
