Lighthouse Wrap

In times of stress, crochet can be a beacon of light and a way to get through things. The Lighthouse Wrap stripes a main color with contrast mini skeins. It’s mostly mindless and comforting to work up, with just enough changes to keep things engaging. The wrap is designed to be long and cozy, so you can wrap yourself in the knowledge that you’ll find your way through.

The Lighthouse Wrap is ideal for an adventurous beginner or intermediate crocheter. It’s easily adjustable and the pattern includes notes for making it longer or shorter, swapping the number of contrast colors, and customizing the layout of the lace rows.

Yarn, Yardage, and Colors
The pattern calls for 400yds/366m/100g in the main color and 133yds/122m/33g in each of six contrast colors, but the wrap can easily be adjusted to work with any yardage.

The sample features gradient minis, but the pattern works just as well with scraps. The openwork shows up best in solids or tonals and the main color works with any color style.

The pattern sample was worked up in fingering, the pattern works perfectly in anything from a laceweight to a worsted.
