Elara is designed to flow effortlessly across your needles, blending rhythmic lacework, rippling garter panels, and bobbles that dot the fabric like treasures waiting to be discovered. Thoughtfully placed short rows shape this DK-weight wrap, giving it a generous, flowing silhouette with a natural drape.

The result is a timeless piece with a quiet, earthy vibe: easy to style, easy to love, and sure to become a favorite in your handmade wardrobe.

Construction Overview:

Elara is knit flat from the top down, shaped with short rows to create gently sloping garter panels that play beautifully alongside lace sections and bobble accents. The final flourish? A delicate picot edge that feels both polished and playful.

The finished wrap is generously sized to enhance its drape and versatility, with dimensions that feel like they belong on the walls of a sunlit artist’s studio—or wrapped lovingly around your shoulders.

Why You’ll Love It:

• Relaxing rhythm: Garter, lace, and bobbles combine for an engaging knit that flows beautifully.

• Shape & Drape: Short rows give Elara its elegant lines and effortless drape.

• Finishing Touches: A picot edge adds a little whimsy to the final rows.

• Generous Size: Designed to feel expansive and versatile without feeling heavy.
