The stars can be seen clearly at night and the sea takes on a special appearance as well. We come to appreciate this very brief respite from the heat!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis heart-shaped shawl was knit with a hand-dyed machine-wash wool yarn in fingering weight, on 3.25 needles. It’s knit flat on an 80cm (30 inch) circular to accommodate the growing number of stitches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe basic stitches are an Estonian asynchronous lace stitch for the starry background and a dainty eyelet chevron for the sea’s waves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI used a blue, violet, and plum variegated fingering weight yarn (about 600 yards\/545-550 meters of hand-dyed superwash wool sock yarn).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVariation\u003c\/strong\u003e: I had 50g each of Manos Silk Blend in purple and Artesano British Wool in bluebell and wanted to combine them into an accessory (using 4mm\/US 6 needles).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe result is a bandana-type scarf that measures 15 inches (38cm) from the center of the top to the bottom point; 23 inches (58.5cm) wide at the widest point; and 35 inches (89cm) around the top\/neck line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe only changes are to knit with US 6\/4mm needles, and to knit through Row 82, before the picot bind-off.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LoveCrafts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56745808494970,"sku":"UPID38592","price":2.45,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0931\/3219\/4170\/files\/f7df5a8a65e7965ee0545be3939c25af1440d193_UPID38592_172840527818991.jpg?v=1775860969","url":"https:\/\/www.lovecrafts.com\/en-gb\/products\/sea-and-stars-knitting-pattern-by-michael-harrigan","provider":"LoveCrafts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
