When you grow up on the Olympic Peninsula of Washington State the tides become a part of you. They are many, varied and timeless.
Full tides, slack tides, king tides and rip tides – they come in and go out – endlessly. The pattern stitch used in this wrap is an eleven stitch sequence worked continuously without a break from one row to the next over multiples of eleven stitches plus four extra stitches. The extra four stitches cause the pattern stitch to morph over a 22-row repeat – like sands that are continually reworked by the endless tides.

This scarf is quite simple with only knit and purl stitches. The crocheted crab stitch edging is optional.

Endless Tides is worked in a serpentine sequence as described in Cecelia Campochiaro’s book, Sequence
Knitting.
