The perfect shawl to wrap around your shoulders for a walk along the beach in spring! Or if, like me, you don’t live by the sea and wish you did, let this shawl remind you of the ocean with every rise and fall of the waves.

Tip for blocking: for a good-sized wrap, block harshly by pinning out the wrap so the lace is stretched (but not out of shape) - for a scarf, block more gently or not at all if you’re happy with the fabric you’ve created - also see the variation at the end of the pattern if you would prefer to knit a narrower scarf instead of a shawl!

Based on a variation of one of my all-time favourite stitches, the Old Shale (shell) stitch, which decorates each end of the wrap.

Thank you to my lovely testers, Mairead, Krista and Becki! I couldn’t have made this pattern without you lovely ladies!

Size: one size, approx 46cm wide x 140cm long, before blocking

• size adjustable with blocking (see ‘tip for blocking’ on page 1)
• or if you would like to make a narrower scarf instead of a wrap/shawl, see the variation given at the end of the pattern!

You will need:

• Approx 250g of sock/4 ply yarn (approx 1000m/1094yds)
• 4mm knitting needles (either straight 30cm knitting needles or circular 40cm needles, whichever you prefer - we don’t join to work in the round, but shorter circular needles can be easier to work with for longer lengths of time, and more portable than straights)

Gauge: 13 stitches and 16 rows = 5 cm in Stocking stitch
Gauge is not critical for this pattern, but please be aware that if your gauge is tighter or looser than average, it will affect the size of the wrap and how much yarn you use. If you wish to work in the same gauge as I did, you may need to go up or down a needle size until you reach the same gauge.
If you’re tight on how much yarn you have, it’s definitely worth working up a swatch before you begin!

Enjoy the pattern!
