INFO
Just as wild waves melt into calm ripples, no two days are ever the same when walking the coastline. The stone piers peek from underneath the water at low tide but give hint to a stormy beach during high tide.

These elements of nature inspire me everyday.

’Ocean Stones’ has an asymmetrical but nearly triangular shape with a built-in edge and is worked flat from the right tip to the left edge. The pattern is fully written out with stitch counts, a schematic and includes a chart for the cable repeats.
