The Basílica de la Sagrada Família in Barcelona is breathtaking in its structure and intricate facade, but entering the church is an otherworldly experience. Rays of light through stained glass windows transform the stone archways into a riotous rainbow of colors. Inspired by the Gaudí masterpiece, this wrap combines structure with ornate beauty. Bold colors use slipped stitches to create mosaic rays while only knitting one color at a time. These rays spread color through the dark MC, opening into gothic archways of flowing lace, transformed by bold and beautiful colors. Choose a gradient or rainbow with strong contrast with the MC to create your own dramatic Vistosa wrap.
