The Hyacinth Wrap is a lacy crochet wrap pattern. With a generous length and width, you can wear the wrap in a number of ways! Use a soft cotton blend like Comfy Color Mist for a lightweight warm weather accessory.

This pattern includes detailed written instructions for the shawl. The shawl is worked from the center to one edge including the border. Then, the second half is started again in the middle and worked out to the other edge.
About the Inspiration for the Hyacinth Wrap Pattern
The inspiration for this pattern came from playing with different lacy designs. I was also thinking of flowers for a spring design.
The colors in the yarn reminded me of the colors of hyacinths. So, I also wanted to mimic the tall blossoms of a hyacinth.
With lots of experimentation, I landed on the lace design included in the wrap. I love how the more solid and lacy sections also play off each other.
About the Yarn
The sample shawl is made in Comfy Color Mist from We Crochet. This is a super soft blend of 75% pima cotton and 25% acrylic yarn.
I love working with cottons and cotton-blends for crochet. I think they show the stitch definition well in the lacy sections. It’s also a soft and light yarn for a spring accessory.
