From where I knit, I am fortunate to have a lovely view of the sea and am fascinated by the changes to its surface throughout the day. This pattern attempts to capture the range of textures – from stormy seas to rippled waves to calm retreating tides. The triangular shawl is knit from the top down, and the simple lace and eyelet stitch patterns that are incorporated into the pattern make for an interesting yet relatively simple knit.
