Knit your own Ring of Lace Wrap using these clearly-written instructions by knitwear designer Jackie E-S of HeartStrings FiberArts.
Ring of Lace is an airy, lightweight circular wrap that can be worn in a variety of ways. This design is an example of how a project in hand-dyed yarn can be planned according to the length of color repeat to create 'faux ikat' effects.
This lacy ring of light and color transforms into many wearing possibilities.
