Illusion Sea Creatures Washcloth
This pattern was the Official Knitting Pattern from Stranded by the Sea for the 2021 Puget Sound Local Yarn Store Tour.
The Illusion Sea Creatures Washcloth Set features 10 different sea-themed designs:
Sea Turtle, Seahorse, Starfish, Crab, Fish, Whale Spout, Whale Tail, Pisaster, Sailboat, and Anchor
Illusion or Shadow Knitting is a method of color work. When Illusion Knitting is viewed from the front, it appears as simple stripes. However, when viewed from an angle, a “hidden” image is revealed.
Suzanne Bryan has a great tutorial “Shadow or Illusion Knitting” on her YouTube channel that demonstrates the basics of this fun and unique technique:
