Sun dropping below the horizon, the air feels fresh with a hint of seaweed. The wind becomes cool. Gentle ripples and lapping waves lulling you into a calmer sense of being. The pace of life slows down as you breathe.
Sandy toes. Hands hold beach treasures, little shells adorn castles both large and small. You wrap yourself in this generous, snuggly shawl to hold onto the sense of calm and wellbeing you felt at the seaside.

You will need to know how to work slipped stitches and basic cables. Links to videos tutorials are provided.
The pattern is both written and charted.
