Amphitrite's Jewels
According to ancient mythology, Amphitrite, the enchanting wife of Poseidon, reigns as the goddess of the sea, embodying grace and beauty. This exquisite shawl pays homage to her, featuring a generous ring of sparkling diamonds elegantly encircled by swirling, foaming waves—a truly fitting tribute to such a majestic deity.
The design is crafted from the center outwards, resulting in a stunning Pi-shawl that measures approximately 48 inches (122 cm) in diameter when worked to the specified pattern tension. This unique pattern tension is derived from the captivating Crest of the Waves motif, where each pattern repeat measures 2 inches (5 cm) wide and 1-5/8 inches (4 cm) high. While achieving exact pattern tension is encouraged, it's important to note that variations may occur, potentially influencing the finished size of your shawl and the overall yarn yardage required. If you're looking to create a breathtaking accessory that reflects the beauty of the ocean, this shawl will surely impress.
