The beautiful blue of the water and the sand, seashells, sand dollars, and sea stars are all images I see when I think of the ocean. The Salt Water and Sea Stars shawl pattern brings them all together with a beautiful yarn and a pretty crossed cable motif. Choose a similar beachy yarn, or any other colour palette you prefer, and enjoy the easy shaping of this end-to-end shawl with just enough of a challenging lace pattern to keep it interesting and fun.
