Wheat Chaff Wrap knitting pattern

Halloo, everybody!
If you're like me, you've been waiting for what seems like forever for sweater season to be over. As soon as the temperatures start to get above 50* upon occasion, you're hauling out the tee shirts and sundresses. For me, the first spring dress comes out Easter Sunday and then they stay out.
However, no matter how much we want it to be warm it's still going to be cold. If we're to be honest with ourselves, 50* is not warm enough to go out in a strap-sleeve dress without some sort of protection from the frigid temperatures. As an easy and fashionable solution is a lacy wrap; therefore, I give you:
The Wheat Chaff Wrap!

Still trying to figure out how to have a pleasant smile for the camera.
It's knitted with a simple lace pattern on huge needles, and is a great beginner lace project!

The wrap is very light (yet surprisingly warm) and thin, so it can also be used as a scarf!
