From earth’s wide bounds, from ocean’s farthest coast,
Through gates of pearl streams in the countless host,
Singing to Father, Son, and Holy Ghost—
Alleluia, alleluia!
Drawing its name from the hymn “For All the Saints” by William Walsham How and inspired by ice-blue water lapping against a snowy polar shore, Farthest Coast is a generous crescent shawlette knit from the top down. Hand-dyed yarn shines best in this accessory; stripes, simple lace, and squishy garter stitch allow colors to melt, shift, and blend together.
