Midnight Ocean

Knitted top-down, this elegant cowl/capelet develops from distant waves into rolling breakers before fading on the seashore. It is perfect for summer evenings or winter parties, particularly if you choose a yarn with a little sparkle. In a plain yarn, its clean Art Deco lines mean it could even keep you warm on the way to the office. Knitted in the round, it is an easy piece for an intermediate lace knitter since there are no complex stitches. This is more about the fun of watching the developing pattern unfold. A novice lace knitter with experience of knitting in the round on other projects would also find this straightforward. Written instructions AND charts are given. Sample used 135g of Fyberspates Sparkle Sock, approx 540m/600yds. Solid or semi-solid yarns are best.
