High Seas combines three variations of one lace motif to create an asymmetrical pattern of dramatic waves.

The sample shown was knit on 3.5mm/US4 needles using 3.5 balls (800yds/730m) of Rowan Kidsilk Haze 632 Hurricane.

Dimensions of finished shawl: a parallelogram 68in/172cm by 22in/56cm. The short ends flare out to 24in/61cm.

​

High Seas includes both charted and written patterns in separate pdfs.

 

Charted Pattern

The charted pattern pdf includes three versions:

 

• the original pattern with left-leaning decreases on RS rows, and p2togtbl’s on WS rows

• a mirrored version with right-leaning decreases on RS rows, and p2tog's instead of p2togtbl’s on WS rows

• a mirrored version with right-leaning decreases on RS rows and plain WS rows.

 

The mirrored versions are a little bit less challenging than the original.

The mirrored version with plain WS rows requires a bit more yarn per repeat than the original, (see details below).

 

The charted pattern pdf includes three charts and short written instructions for each chart.

English and German versions of the charted pattern pdf are available.

 

Written Pattern

The written pattern pdf contains just one version of High Seas: the slightly easier mirrored version with right-leaning decreases on RS rows and p2tog’s on WS rows.

 

The written pattern pdf is only available in English.

 

High Seas is also available as part of the knit/lab Waves volume 1 eBook.
