Erakor

Erakor is a tiny islet that lies in Vanuatu archipelago, in the South-West Pacific. The sea is deeply blue and vegetation grows widely near the beach of Erakor. Few years ago, I used to go there swimming and relaxing. Today I miss the islet a lot. This little shawlette has the colour of the sea near Erakor. I added some leaves in the brim to complete the memory of my loving islet.

Erakor begins at the top. You just have to grab some wool and needles, sit in front of TV or book and knit as mad some garter bands. Then things become a little more complicated, you would have to memorize the lace motif and to attach the edging vertically to the body of the shawl, stitch after stitch. And once you start to get annoyed….the shawlette is finished !
