Sargasso is inspired by sunlight bouncing off shimmering ocean waves. The shawl is worked sideways in one piece and features beads along the short edges. The undulating lace pattern looks complicated but is simple and easy even for a beginner lace knitter. The lace stitches are intersected with narrow garter sections of different sizes, which mirror the way ocean waters seem to flatten in between the cresting waves. The center of the shawl is more solid, while the ends become progressively lacier to further embody the movement of water and the beat of the waves reaching the beach. The tendency of hand-dyed yarns to pool unpredictably will actually enhance the overall watery effect especially if all the colors are within the aqua blue range and without any great contrasts.
This pattern has optional beading - you will need approx 110 6/0 4 mm beads
