The Sand to Sea Shawl was an idea born October 2019 while sitting in the floor of The Traveling Yarn Yogi, whom is affectionately named Purl, the first yarn bus in Georgia. While chatting with a friend and squishing lots of gorgeous yarns, a stylish red-haired, mature woman stepped on the bus and said “Sand to Sea” when she saw the speckled neutral and shades of blue and turquoise yarns in my hand. With the help of a few sketches from my friend, who is a knitter and crocheter, I started with a half circle with bobbles for the sand, and my sister picked a wave stitch pattern for me. I added some gorgeous beads to the waves to mimic the crest of waves.

The Sand to Sea Shawl was my first design in fingering weight yarn, and a guest post for Joy of Motion Crochet. I wanted the shawl to be used anytime to keep your shoulders warm. With the subtle shine of the glass beads, it pairs wonderfully with a strappy dress or a tank, jeans and heels when you’re heading to a dinner date. With the unique shape of the Sand to Sea Shawl, a portion is a half circle and the other half is rectangular, so you get two different looks to drape across each shoulder. The airiness of the sand and the sea adds warmth for chilly spring days, but can also be worn any breezy evening at home or waterside.

You’re sure to turn heads when wearing the Sand to Sea Shawl, and with a large grin, you can reply, “I made it!”

You’ll learn how to do short rows, attach two pieces of crochet while you work, and add beads without having to sew them on afterwards! Don’t let it intimidate you. Just remember to read the pattern before beginning, and to take your time.

YARN

I chose to work with fingering weight yarn through the encouragement of my friend. Many fingering weight yarns tend to be merino wool or a mix of wool with other fibers for added stretch and sturdiness. The Cozy Color Works is a light fingering weight yarn that is so soft and allows the speckle of colors to really pop out, so I chose Toasted Marshmallow. The Forbidden Fiber Co. yarns have amazing color ways, so I chose Glass Slipper with gorgeous shades of blue and turquoise.

Cozy Color Works offers a wide range of colors, so you can choose a different speckle or solid color the reminds you of your favorite beach. Although Glass Slipper in Gluttony Sock was sold out on their site, Forbidden Fiber Co. has other bases in this awesome color way.

BEADS

The Sand to Sea Shawl is also my first design with glass beads. It was more fun than I expected, and it was easier to add beads than I thought since there were so many to add.

I chose to use a steel hook that could fit within the eye of the bead rather than pre-stringing the beads, as I wasn’t sure how many beads would be needed. If you prefer to pre-string your beads and pick one up when indicated in the pattern, then definitely go with the option that is easiest for you. If you do choose to pre-string the beads for the Sand to Sea Shawl or any other crochet project, definitely consider the Easy Beader or a dental flosser (I learned this from GwenGoods during the Fiber Focused NC Retreat).

When I look at waves, the crest tends to appear white in color from the churning water, so I chose a pearl-ish white color, but have fun choosing the color beads that compliments the yarn you’re using for the wave section of the Sand to Sea Shawl.

SPECIAL STITCHES & TECHNIQUES

CSDC: pull up a loop, wrap around hook (YO made), insert hook in first st, YO, [pull through 2 loops] twice

Bobble: [Yarn over, insert hook into next st, yarn over pull through st, yarn over pull through 2 loops on hook] 5 times, yarn over, pull through all 6 loops on hook

Add bead: Remove larger hook from loop; using smaller hook, pick up a bead, place hook with bead through the loop, slide bead down onto loop, remove smaller hook from loop, place larger hook in loop, tighten loop on hook and bead, complete next st as instructed. [see Pic. 1]

Attaching sl st: insert hook through BL of st above and next st of current working row, YO, pull through all loops [see Pic. 2]

Attaching dc: insert hook through BL of st above, YO, insert hook in next st of current working row, [YO, pull through 2 loops] twice 

Attaching hdc: insert hook through BL of st above, YO, insert hook in next st of current working row, YO, pull up a loop, YO, pull through all loops

Attaching sc: insert hook through BL of st above and next st of current working row, YO, pull up a loop, YO, pull through all loops

Magic Circle: Going from left to right, place the tail of the yarn across the top of your index finger, then loop the yarn around your finger one time. Place the working yarn (from the skein) behind the tail, then insert the hook under the loops to pull up a loop from the working yarn. Begin crocheting.

NOTES

• Pattern is written US terms.
• Read the entire pattern before beginning.
• Measurements are given unblocked and blocked.
• Note that measurements are given as exact as possible. But crochet tension & technique might give variations in the result, that changes from person to person. 
• Picture tutorials are provided for Add Bead and Attaching sl st in the ad-free PDF. The other attached stitches are created in a similar manner of inserting the hook through the BL first, and then creating the stitch as normal in the indicated stitch.
• Pattern is worked in 3 sections: Sand, Sea, Edging. 
• Beginning ch 1 does not count as first st.
• CSDC can be replaced with ch 3, but may create a noticeable gap.
• Bobbles are worked on WS rows to make them pop.
• The Sand section will not be a true half circle shape until it is blocked.
• When adding beads, it may help to pour them in a small container with a lid.
• Beads can be pre-strung, but can be added within a row as it is worked, per the instructions in Special Stitches & Techniques.
• A version of short rows are used to attach the Sea to Sand as it is worked.
• Be sure to count the st totals regularly. This will matter when attaching all of the pieces.
• Keep the yarn on the WS of the work when attaching the rows.
• The italicized instructions before a semicolon (;) indicate which stitches are used to attach the Sea to Sand. The rest of the instructions are not italicized and are worked as normal in the row below.
• Within the Sea instructions, { } are used to indicate the total number of attached sts prior to beginning the row.
• Keep the yarn on the WS of the work when attaching the rows.
• Due to the nature of attaching the pieces and variable gauge, additional rows may be required to attach the Sand to the Sea.
• If additional rows are needed, continue in pattern as written and end on a RS row of FPsc, and then follow instructions for Row 37 and Edging.
