Dewy Ocean
Discover the intricate rhythms and harmonious design of the Dewy Ocean shawl, a stunning knitting pattern inspired by a unique colorway and the timeless beauty of nature.
The hand-dyed yarn, aptly named 'Oceaan,' features a silvery, misty hue that evokes the serene ambiance of a seascape at dawn.
This exquisite pattern begins with an abstract representation of the sky meeting the horizon and gracefully expands into a cascade of undulating waves at its lower edge.
Dewy Ocean boasts an elegant asymmetrical shape and is worked flat, seamlessly transitioning from the right tip to the left edge. The captivating cable section initiates at the shawl's widest point, near the end. This thoughtfully crafted pattern is fully written out, complete with detailed stitch counts, while the cable section is also provided in a clear chart format for ease of use.
YARN: Choose any DK or worsted weight yarn—approximately 897-984 yards (820-900 meters) are recommended to bring this design to life.
GAUGE: For the cable pattern, one repeat measures 6 stitches x 8 rows when blocked, totaling 1.57” x 1.08” (4 x 2.75 cm). Additionally, the garter stitch gauge measures 16 stitches x 34 rows when blocked, equating to a square of 4” x 4” (10 x 10 cm). While achieving the stated gauge is not crucial, variations may impact the final size and total yardage required.
