The Ebbing Tide shawlette
ETA 07/22/19 - The yarn, altho listed in the database as “lace”, is in fact a fingering (almost a “heavy fingering”) so any type of fingering yarn will work great for this shawlette!
A fun shawlette to remind you of summer at the beach … a romantic walk along the wet sand … the moonlit ocean … the tide slowly receding to leave traces of water behind.
This shawlette starts at the top with a garter-tab, progresses thru alternating stripes of garter and stockinette and ends with a graceful wave-lace pattern. Blocking makes this shawl pop!
Directions are charted and row-by-row for this shawlette that uses two colors (about 140 yards of each) of fingering-weight fiber; sample used one skein each of Spring Gate Farm’s Cashmere Silk Merino blend in Sable and Lapis Lazuli. I used just about all the yarn of both skeins, so if you are a loose knitter, you may require a bit more yardage.
• this design is knit flat starting with a garter tab, progressing to evenly spaced yo’s with alternating stripes and then finishes with a wave-lace stitch pattern
• design is row-by-row and charted
• there are many ways to wear this shawlette – check out the pictures here and on my website (www.marygildersleeve.com) for some ideas
