Rivers run through the desert here: the Truckee, the Carson, the Walker. And the first time you come upon one, it’s like finding a treasure: a private oasis of greenery and sparkling water hidden away just for your eyes, the water bubbling and rippling over rocks and washing down into deep pools.

This wrap, with its rippling stitch patterns and bubbling spine of increases, pays homage to the water in this beautiful part of the world. Worked in lovely soft fingering weight yarn and two colors of blue, River Walk stretches your skills with lace (some worked on both right and wrong sides), cabled increases, and wave patterns.
