new crochet pattern - sea glass shawl by kim miller.





Skill Level: Intermediate

Sea Glass is a light weight, carefree, shawl edged with lacy pineapples that roll and crest just like the waves of the sea.

The entire shawl is worked sideways with the edging worked at the same time. Shorter stitches along the top edge give the shawl a slightly crescent shape which allows it to drape beautifully around the neckline.

This crochet pattern calls for approximately 2 skeins of Midknit Cravings Sugar (Silver/Gold) 115 g (4.05 ounces)/388 meters (425 yards) per skein, a 3.25 mm (D) crochet hook, and a yarn needle. This detailed well written pattern includes written instructions, as well as a chart of the first 12 and the last 11 rows.

Pre-blocked the shawl measures approximately 152.4 cm (60”) at its widest point, and 45.7 cm (18”) at its longest point. Blocked the shawl measures approximately 177.8 cm (70”) at its widest point, and 49.5 cm (19.5”) longest point. Please note that measurements are approximate and will be affected by the gauge and the brand of yarn.

sneak peek.

This cowl has been in my brain for over a year and I'm happy to say it has finally come about.


I love how it turned out! Simple stitches blocked out and 100% baby alpaca gives it a truly luxurious look and feel. Looking forward to sharing it with you in the very near future!

this child of mine.


My oldest daughter wanted to make a shawl and since I'm a big fan of crochet designer, Bernadette Ambergen, I directed her to Bernadette's crochet patterns. Bernadette has a beautiful collection of crochet shawl patterns to choose from so it was hard deciding. In the end she went with Wisteria, and this is her finished project. Isn't it gorgeous?


 
 
Unfortunately, I the yarn was unmarked, so the only yarn details that I can give you is that it is a sea foam green cotton.
 
 
 
 
So inspiring....but sadly neither Tara or I will have a much time for hook and yarn this month :( Don't despair we still have plans for you!!!
