Gulf Breezes
22 February 2017
Pattern has been completely updated and revised to include charts so the lace sections now have both charted and written instructions. Chart lovers rejoice.
This versatile little shawl will be a must-have addition to your wardrobe. Not only is it a wrap for those cool evenings, a topper for a sundress, or a chic kerchief-style scarf, it even works as a beach cover up when tied around the hips.
It’s knit from the center back down with a single 100-gram skein of luxury sock yarn. The unusual shaping helps it stay on the shoulders nicely. Pattern is suitable for the Advanced Beginner to Intermediate knitter. Techniques required: basic stitches, increases and decreases, simple shaping, basic lace techniques (yo, k2tog, ssk, sk2p, M1, kfb, kfbf). Pattern was written for a 490 yds skein of yarn but is easy to adjust for smaller skeins of yarn.
Gradient version notes:
Stockinette section was worked in first two colors of the gradient, Sand Dune Lace in color 3, Waves Lace in colors 3 - 6.
Thank you to Sarah for the fresh tech edit, and to my testers, Cath, Eliesa, and Melinda for checking the new version.
