The short front hem of the wrap compliments all figures while the back falls in gentle ripples away from an eye-catching central lace mandala pattern.  A stretchy ribbed collar formed using crochet post stitches keeps the Ida Shawl on your shoulders without pins or ties for a practical yet feminine look. This lovely spring or autumn pieces keeps you warm while enhancing any outfit! The central mandala is based on a five-pointed star pattern inspired by the formation of seeds you can see when you cut an apple in half. To me it is representative of the beauty of natural geometry that I admire so much.  Pattern includes detailed written instructions and a ton of step-by-step tutorial photos! <3 Materials: 5.50 mm Hook or size needed to obtain gauge Cleckheaton Australian Superfine Merino (65 g, 130 meters) OR Rico Essentials Merino DK (50 g, 120 meters) 7 skeins in the following scheme: Color A – 1 skein Color B – 1 skein Color C – 1 skein Color D – 2 skeins Color E – 2 skeins Scissors & Tapestry Needle for weaving in ends Yarn Substitutions: For ease of care, wool allergies, or affordability you may consider an acrylic substitute for this project – I recommend Caron Simply Soft Light (#3, 85 g / 330 yards, 100% Acrylic – 3 skeins) which produces a slightly different but equally lovely look. ~*I offer troubleshooting and pattern help for all of my patterns.
