Description:
The Ocean Crest Shawl is a crochet shawl inspired by the ocean beach. Like solid lines of the sand and changing waves of the ocean, the shawl works in alternating sections of plain double crochet reminiscent of the sand and a wave stitch pattern reminiscent of the water rolling onto the shore. This is a triangular, asymmetrical shawl that’s worked from one tip and gradually widens as it progresses.
