Arctic Water

Discover the beauty of the Arctic with the Arctic Water hap, the first of three stunning designs in the Arctic Aura series that I created in 2015. This unique knitted accessory stands out as the squishiest and heaviest of the trio, embodying a luxurious look and feel. Its captivating cold blue tones paired with soft off-white hues evoke the essence of chilly northern climates and the bright reflections of the mysterious Arctic waters—beautiful, dangerous, undiscovered, and filled with intrigue.

This elegant hap is constructed from the inside out, showcasing a central square that is knitted diagonally back and forth in a rich garter stitch, embellished with intricate Cat’s Paw lace motifs. Building upon this foundation, the delightful Old Shale wavy border is crafted in the round, culminating in a full version of the traditional peaked edging that is formed perpendicular to the border, adding a unique texture and visual interest. Please note that this stunning hap requires blocking to achieve its final form.

The detailed pattern includes comprehensive written and charted instructions, alongside helpful photographs, expert tips, and links to video tutorials, making it accessible for knitters of all skill levels. Whether you're a seasoned knitter or a beginner eager to expand your skills, this pattern provides the guidance you need to create a breathtaking piece.

Happy stitching, and may your needle dance as you embark on this beautiful journey through yarn! ~ Cathliin
