Picture the moment of ocean waves reaching far into the shore and breaking out into smaller and smaller bubbles.

That is the inspiration behind this design, which has been brought to life with a special Japanese indigo-dyed yarn.
Using full skeins of 2 different colors, this technique allows you to work until the end without cutting any yarn throughout.

Two sizes are available. A wide & narrower version. Both utilize the full two skeins.

The pattern is a very simple 2-row chevron pattern on repeat.
Once you get the hang of it, the rhythm and flow of the technique is soothing as you build out into a shawl.
