Alternating stripes of variegated yarn with a solid allows for gradual color transitions that are instantly pleasing to the eye. Here, ombre shades of mint and turquoise paired with clean solid white created the tranquil watercolor effect that inspired its seaside theme. This is an ideal project for beginner crochet levels as the breezy open shells and simple double crochet stitches work up quick and easy, letting the striped colors do all the fancy work! Go ahead and experiment with your own two colors to make it uniquely yours, you won’t be disappointed. Let’s get started and together crochet something beautiful.
