Wavy Sea s is a flowing poncho, with a scalloped lacy edge that is reminiscent of the waves on the sea shore. Knitted in aran/worsted yarn, it is a lighter knit for Spring/Autumn days, or brilliant for cooler, Summer evenings.

It is an easy pattern as the only skills needed are cast/bind on and off, knit, purl, k2together and yarn forward. Instructions are written line by line, in English with British/USA terms.

Great with jeans or a flowy skirt and just right for that extra layer on the beach or when out and about.
