Rozel Bay lies on the north-east coast of the island of Jersey, in the Channel Islands. Its beach is strewn with pebbles of all shades, which are washed up by some of the strongest tides in the world.

Inspired by a traditional Scandinavian motif reminiscent of pebbles, ‘Rozel’ showcases a trio of Shetland shades in a pleasing choice of three palettes.

The 4-page pattern booklet includes full-colour charts and schematic. The pattern covers four children’s sizes.

The tank top (vest) is knitted in the round to the armholes, then front and back are knitted flat in rows. The shoulders are gently shaped with short rows, and front and back are grafted together for a seamless finish. The tank top (vest) is completed with ribbing around armholes and neckline.
