Jade Starmore: "This was my very first published design in stranded knitting. I based it on my memories of a childhood journey along Highway 1 in California, and for me it captures all the exuberance of that wonderful coastal road. The luxurious soft feel of Hebridean yarn makes it ideal for use in a baby blanket. This example will grace any child’s room, or use it as a throw in any room that needs a touch of west coast breeziness. I have reworked the design in suitable shoreline shades, which include Mara, Whin, Strabhann, Summertide, Solan Goose, Kittiwake, Spindrift and Sundew. The tension and measurements are different from the original. The book Pacific Coast Highway is needed, and an amendment is supplied with the yarn."
