Silvia by the sea
If you're passionate about knitting and love creating exquisite lacework, you'll adore the "Silvia by the Sea" shawlette pattern. This stunning piece features a beautifully adapted edging inspired by a traditional Estonian lace design, expertly crafted by Olga Jamovidova and Liina Gavrilo from their renowned blog, ‘New lace – old traditions.’ To elevate the design further, I incorporated the captivating ‘Crashing Waves’ stitch pattern from Debbie Tomkins’ popular stitch dictionary, ‘250 Knitting Stitches.’ With a few minor adjustments and the thoughtful addition of carefully placed beads, the enchanting "Silvia by the Sea" shawlette was born.
This semi-circular shawlette is knit from the bottom up in one seamless piece, allowing for a smooth and enjoyable knitting experience. The innovative shaping technique utilizes short rows in the stocking stitch section, resulting in a beautifully draped garment finished with a refined i-cord cast off, perfect for adding a polished touch.
The pattern is designed for versatility; it includes both beads and nupps for an intricate texture. However, if you prefer a simpler approach, feel free to omit the beads or substitute the nupps with beads for an easier knit. This flexibility makes "Silvia by the Sea" suitable for knitters of various skill levels who want to add their personal touch to this elegant shawlette.
For your convenience, "Silvia by the Sea" includes both comprehensive chart and written instructions, ensuring that you can easily follow along regardless of your preferred knitting style. Whether you're an experienced knitter or looking to expand your skills, this pattern is a delightful addition to your collection.
