Little Moons Lace Wrap In Santolina
Our Little Moons Lace Wrap knitting pattern reflects the moon across a deep mountain lake, its image refracted and multiplied over the surface of the water… Such celestial beauty brought to earth!
Pinpricks of light and color peek through the texture of the lace, surrounding our little moons in a galaxy of stars, while strong diagonal lines travel between the lacy crescents, the ripples on our lake’s surface.
It may all look as beautifully complicated as the night sky, but this wrap is wonderfully simple to knit. The lace pattern is an easy ten-row repeat of basic increases and decreases that are just right for keeping the knitting fun!
We knit our Little Moons Wrap in our lovely Santolina yarn, a combination of 70% organically grown cotton, 20% rayon from bamboo, and 10% hemp. It is soft with a gentle shine and a lightness that makes it fantastic for three-season accessories.
Santolina now comes in six new colors, who join a soft and soothing palette of beautifully heathered hues. Add in the gorgeous drape you’d expect from these plant fibers, and you’ll be over the moon for our Little Moons Lace Wrap!

NOTES
STITCH MULTIPLE
Worked over a multiple of 6 plus 10 stitches.
INCREASES
RLI (Right Lifted Increase): Lift right leg of the stitch below the next stitch on the left-hand needle onto the left-hand needle and knit it. [1 stitch increased]
For more information about this technique, please visit our Lifted Increases Tutorial.
M1R purlwise (Make One Right Purlwise, worked on the wrong side): With the left needle, pick up the horizontal strand between the last stitch you knit and the one you’re about to knit, bringing the needle from back to front, then purl through front loop of the strand. This makes a right-leaning increase on the right, or knit, side of the fabric. [1 stitch increased]
