Yarn Care
hand wash, dry flatRivage Stole
Designed by Aubrey Busek
Rivage is a beautiful, summery stole that pays homage to cockle shells and gentle waves lapping the shore during low tide. It features sections of an undulating lace motif broken up by glorious rows of shell stitches. The self-striping effect of Sandcastle adds more magic to the wrap and makes each stitch more interesting than the last.

We recommend breaking Color B after Rows 8 and 16 of the Shells pattern instead of carrying the yarn up the side of the work. Weave in your ends as you go to save time.

PATTERN NOTES
This top is constructed with two identical halves which are then seamed together with slip stitches to create a visible seam. Each half starts with making two small panels, which are both joined to continue adding width for the shoulders. Each half is then seamed in the center to create a Front and Back, then is seamed up the sides of each edge to create the top.
Please note that size 4x makes the most of 10 skeins of Sandcastle. You may wish to purchase an extra skein of yarn as insurance.
This pattern uses US crochet terminology.
