PATTERN INFO

When you walk along the beach and watch the waves flow onto dry sand during an incoming tide, you will see many small round holes form as the water sinks down into the sand. As the water recedes, some of it goes back into the sea but some sinks into the sand. When it does, it forces the air between the sand particles back upwards and this air bubbles out creating pin holes. Watching the bubbles gave me the inspiration for this neck scarf.

Beautiful edges provides a neat finish to the scarf design, which is wearable on both sides. The scarf is easy to work from fully written-out directions with stitch counts, as well as a schematic and easy-to-read charts.
