This holey ruffle-edged wrap is one of our spring-time designs. We often need a little something light but warm to wrap around our shoulders when out-and-about, either in the Devon countryside or dashing into town for a quick peruse around the shops, beach walks, or parties. The Frilly ‘O’ Wrap has a moss stitch border at the widest part and an optional ruffle all along the bottom for extra flamboyance.
