The combination of a geometric zig-zag lace pattern and Elsebeth Lavold’s Hempathy DK cotton/hemp/rayon yarn come together to perfectly showcase the gorgeous drape of this long stole.
Lightweight and lacy, this is a wonderful layering piece perfect for in-between seasons
The deep fringe (which adds 50cms in total length) in a stark contrast colour is reminiscent of the beach towels we always had growing up in the ‘70’s and provides just the right retro vibe, while an i-cord edging gives a neat, contemporary finish.

The stitch patterns in this pattern are beautifully simple. For this reason, written instructions only, not charts, are included.
An 80cm/32in circular needle should accommodate to total stitch count throughout this pattern, however if you are finding it difficult to manage the increasing stitch count comfortably, you could change to a 100cm/40in circular needle at any stage.

Using a single skein of luxury, hand-dyed merino/silk yarn, this small shawl is worked from side-to-side to create a lovely semi-circular shape.
Directional panels of lace emulate the gentle currents of the sea and the finished piece was designed to follow the natural curves of the body along the upper back, hugging the shoulders to stay in place.
An i-cord edging neatly borders the longer edges to help the shape of the shawl lay flat, while the combination of gauge and yarn gives a beautiful drape to the finished piece.
Written and charted instructions included.
