Product Details
Countertide is a top-down lace crescent with dynamic zigzags and a playful air.
Reminiscent of waves lapping a foreign shoreline, this shawl is inspired by the longing that comes upon us in the depths of a season of extreme temperature: in winter the urge to pack up and go somewhere warm and sunny, or in summer to flee the baking heat or humidity in favour of the fresh air of the mountains or the crispness of the snow. Play with two contrasting colours, or pair a variegated with a solid.
- Wide or narrow stripes of plain knitting between the lace sections, or lace as edging only.
- Infinitely repeatable: work to any size you wish.
- The edging can be repeated to extend the lace filligree as far as you like, or until you run out of yarn. Bind off on any row.
- Optional beading
Can be worked entirely from written pattern, or charts with notes.
Suitable for a range of yarn weights and yardages.
Pattern is worked on the RS only.
