Design by Alegria DaSilva Angels Landing is a lacy feminine lightweight wrap. Waves of wandering eyelets frame delicate columns of mock cable. This pattern is suitable for adventurous beginner lace knitters. One size: finished wrap measures 45 by 12 inches. This wrap is named for the Angels Landing hike at Zion National Park. The hike begins with a series of steep switchbacks and culminates in a breathtaking view of the deep sandstone canyon carved out by the north fork of the Virgin River.
