At this point, winter will soon be over, and I am already craving those first hints of spring green. If you feel the same, this wrap is such a satisfying knit while we wait for lawns to wake up and gardens to come back to life. Leafy Vines is all about calming shades of green and beautiful foliage, with vines running the length of the piece and a sweet twin leaf motif along the lower edge.

Why I love this knitting pattern right now is that it delivers that fresh spring feeling before spring actually arrives. It is rhythmic, pretty, and wearable, and it lets you knit something that looks intricate but is built on a repeat you can settle into with a cup of tea.
