Coral Cove Shawl
Immerse yourself in the tranquility of Coral Cove as you sit on its sandy beach, surrounded by the soothing sound of rippling waves. With our beautiful knitting pattern, you can capture the essence of this relaxing coastal scene—complete with shimmering oyster shells resting on the ocean floor, soft golden sand, and playful seagulls soaring above. Each stitch pattern in the Coral Cove shawl design reflects a distinct element of this picturesque landscape, allowing you to carry the calming aura of the cove with you wherever life takes you.
Yarn: For this enchanting shawl, you'll need two 100-gram skeins of fingering or sock weight yarn, perfect for achieving a delicate and airy finish.
Finished Dimensions: Upon completion, your Coral Cove shawl will measure approximately 68”/170 cm along the long edge and 42”/105 cm along the short edge, with a graceful 18”/45 cm drop from the long edge to the point. These dimensions are provided before blocking, and the pattern offers versatility for those wishing to create a smaller or larger version of the shawl, tailored to your personal style.
Difficulty Level: This project is categorized as advanced beginner. The stitch patterns are fully written out for ease of use, and feature very short repeats, making it accessible yet engaging for knitters looking to expand their skills.
Needles: To achieve the perfect gauge for your Coral Cove shawl, you will need US 8 (5.0 mm) needles or a size that produces an ideal fabric for your chosen yarn. This shawl is designed to be worked flat, allowing for a straightforward knitting experience.
Gauge: For the best results, aim for a gauge of 20 stitches and 26 rows to 4”/10 cm in stockinette stitch, unblocked. This gauge ensures that your crochet piece retains its intended shape and drape.
Bring a touch of Coral Cove's serenity into your knitting projects and create a stunning shawl that not only showcases your skills but also evokes the peaceful beauty of this coastal escape. Start your journey today and make the Coral Cove shawl a cherished addition to your wardrobe.
