High Tide was designed with breezy, sunshiny days in mind.

Worked from the bottom up, beginning with a rolled edge and ribbing on a split hem, soft waist shaping keeps the lines flattering and feminine, but not too fitted, for just the right amount of cozy.

Pattern includes 4 separate files, written for lace, fingering, sport/DK, and worsted weights.

The lace weight option, worked at a loose gauge, is perfect for a day at the beach. Work one up in a heavier weight, or vary the material from summer cotton or linen to wool, and this becomes a year round piece, as well as one you will knit again and again.

Children’s version available here: Low Tide
