Rockpooling Shawl
Compared to the wildness of the open ocean, rockpooling seems a very small sort of adventure. Sometimes, that’s the very best kind. When the tide is out, the shallow rock pools along the shore brim with wonders. To see what there is to see you have to get close and stay very still. You have to take your time. The reflection of sunlight on the water glitters, you squint, and then it’s there. A scuttling hermit crab or a fluttering anemone. A tiny fish or a perfect starfish. Moving from pool to pool, exploring and marvelling: it’s a wonderful way to spend a few hours at the seaside.
The Rockpooling Shawl is knit from cosy DK weight yarn. A traditional triangle shape with contemporary detailing, it features an easy but evocative slip-stitch pattern. This three colour shawl offers plenty of scope: go for a sharp contrast or a more gentle dappled effect. A smart garter border finishes it all off beautifully.
