This scarf has a garter stitch frill, like the mouth of a cowrie shell or the twist in tangled seaweed, it also has intarsia shells and a textured wavelets pattern on the reverse, which is knitted after the front of the scarf has been completed, so that the scarf is double sided. You can embellish the shells later as you please with sewn on beads to add a seaside shimmer.
