Coastal Reflection, a transatlantic collaboration, unites yarn and pattern from two indies who are becoming fast friends. As tides recede from the shores of England, gentle waves appear on the banks of North Carolina. Whether launching a yacht or walking along the shore, cast away with Coastal Reflection to your favorite destination.

The tech edited and test knit pattern includes written directions, charts of the Stitch Detail, the Stitch Detail written, a Stitch Detail and shaping cheat sheet, and blocking schematic. Updated April 2019.

Special Notes:
Wear it as a tank! The linen provides an elegant raw edge around the arm openings so there is no need to add a crochet edge. For larger bust sizes, I do recommend adding short row darts on the front as the linen doesn’t smooth along the body so you may get gaping under the arm if you don’t. This is only necessary if you aren’t planning to add the sleeves.
