With polished simplicity, this airy and elegant wrap is as beautiful as it is versatile. Wear it from the beach to dinner to an evening stroll on the boardwalk.

Inspired by ocean waves nearing the shore, the Diagonal Shells Wrap features a yarn with a slow color change from deep sea green to aqua to misty light blue. The shell stitch pattern in diagonal lines is entertaining and easy to memorize, and it’s always fun to watch the colors change as you work. Best of all, the fabric is reversible!

This project can be completed with just one Scheepjes Whirl yarn cake. (Only two ends to weave in!)
