We love stripes!

In clue #7 we will be working on 7 new rows – are you ready to start?

As usual, you will find videos to assist you at the bottom of the clue. But if you have anyway questions, you can leave them to us using the form at the bottom of the page.

First a little information

Did you ran out of color e in Clue#4? Don`t worry – you can use color d instead.

STRIPES:
Cut the thread after each row, unless the next row is of the same colour. Fasten the threads in the side once finished.

ROW 41: beige (color e)
ROW 42: ice blue (color h)
ROW 43: cerise (color f)
ROW 44: powder (color a)
ROW 45: red (color d)
ROW 46: coral (color c)
ROW 47: red (color d)

PATTERN:
We are using diagrams A.6a and A.6b in this clue. A.6a shows how the row begins. NOTE: The beginning of rows is drawn above each other in the same diagram even though they are worked alternately the right and left side of the shawl and not above each other.

COLOR CHANGE:
When switching colors, work as follows: Work last stitch on row with the first color, but wait with last yarn over and pull through, switch to next color and work the last yarn over and pull through on the last stitch with this color, then work next row.

If you are experienced you can follow the diagram under, but if you need more help to get started you can continue to read the clue below.

Need help to get started?

Here’s a more detailed description of how to start with Clue #7. We have marked where we are working in the diagram with red.

Continue as before – remember to read COLOR CHANGE, and increase on row 41 as follows:
ARROW 11(= row 41): Increase 1 double crochet on each side of the marking threads by working 1 double crochet extra around the chain stitch space (= 24 stitches increased) = 384 stitches.

Work rows 42-43.

Work row 44 and increase as follows:
ARROW 12 (= row 44): Increase 1 double crochet on each side of the marking threads by working 1 double crochet extra around the chain stitch space (= 24 stitches increased) = 408 stitches.

Work the remaining rows in the diagram (meaning, until row 47).

Finished!

The 7th clue is now finished the piece measures approx. 27” between the first chain stitch space and the middle of the last row worked when all 47 rows have been worked. We only have a couple of clues left - we are approaching the end. This is how the shawl looks when we are done with this clue!
