Wavelet Shawl

Introducing the Wavelet Crescent Shawl, a stunning knitting pattern inspired by the gentle curves of a sandy beach. This unique shawl is constructed in a top-down format, beginning at the back of the neck and gracefully extending to the outer edge. Perfect for both beginners and seasoned knitters, this design is sure to add a touch of elegance to your wardrobe.

The creation begins with a long central section, followed by an eyelet pattern that forms the top border. The enchanting crescent shape of the shawl is achieved through innovative short row shaping techniques. The outer section of the shawl showcases an intricate wave pattern, reminiscent of ocean waves cascading along the shoreline, beautifully accentuated by reverse stocking stitch ridges that add depth and texture.

The Wavelet shawl is crafted using high-quality Irish Artisan Yarn (IAY) Hand-Dyed 4Ply Sock Yarn, made from 75% Superwash Merino and 25% Nylon, offering both softness and durability (400m/437yd per 100g skein). You will need 2 × 100g skeins in the exquisite shade of Keem Bay to create this breathtaking piece. Please note that the yarn amounts provided are based on average requirements and are approximate, allowing for some flexibility in your knitting project.

If you’re inspired by this design, you’ll be pleased to know that the second shawl featured in my photos is also knitted with the same IAY yarn, this time in the beautiful shade of Lahinch. Whether you choose Keem Bay or Lahinch, the Wavelet Crescent Shawl will make a perfect accessory for any occasion, bringing warmth and style to your outfits.
