Sandpiper

Even the warmest summer days can bring a delightful chill across your shoulders during those cooler evening walks along the water’s edge at the beach or at the cozy cottage. ( I always envy those fortunate enough to own a cottage by the lake!) This versatile shawl is the perfect accessory to keep you comfortable during those tranquil moments.

No matter the season, you’ll find this shawl a relaxing and straightforward project to knit. Whether you’re a beginner looking to enhance your skills or an experienced knitter seeking a soothing knit, this pattern is just right for you.

To achieve maximum drape and an open, airy feel, this lovely shawl is designed to be knitted with a larger needle size than what the yarn typically requires. The bottom border edge is crafted using a smaller needle size, but if you prefer, you can easily knit the entire shawl with one needle size throughout. Keep in mind that this choice will slightly influence the final size and total yardage needed.

The shawl begins at the top neck edge, allowing you to create a beautiful drape as you work downward. This method not only simplifies the knitting process but also makes it easier to adjust the length to your preference. Experience the joy of creating a stunning accessory that adds warmth and style to any outfit, whether you’re at a seaside retreat or enjoying a cozy evening at home.

Join the countless knitters who have loved this pattern, and enjoy making your very own shawl that is both functional and fashionable!
