GARTER ST (back and forth): K all rows. 1 ridge = K2 rows. MEASUREMENTS All measurements given in pattern are measured at the longest. PATTERN: See diagrams A.1 to A.6. The diagrams show all rows in pattern seen from RS. When diagram A.6 and A.1b are repeated, there are more and more sts between YO and dec (dec = slip 2 sts as if to K, K 1, pass the 2 slipped sts over) than shown in diagram, note that the dec will repeat vertically over themselves until finished measurements. ---------------------------------------------------------- SHAWL: Worked top down, back and forth on circular needle to make room for all the sts. Cast on 5 sts on circular needle size 3.5 mm / US 4 with blue. STRIPE 1 (stockinette st): ROW 1 (= WS): * K 1, 1 YO *, repeat from *-* until 1 st remains, K 1 = 9 sts. ROW 2 (= RS): K all sts. ROW 3 (= WS): K 2, * 1 YO, K 1 *, repeat from *-* 6 times in total, finish with K 1 = 15 sts. Then work pattern as follows, beg from RS: Work 2 edge sts in GARTER ST – see explanation above, repeat A.1a 6 times in total but on last repetition do not work last st in diagram (i.e. last repetition = 1 st), finish with 2 edge sts in garter st. Continue pattern like this. Work edge sts in garter st until finished measurements. REMEMBER THE KNITTING GAUGE When A.1a has been worked 1 time vertically, there are 117 sts on needle (= 19 sts in each of the first 5 repetitions of A.1a and 18 sts in the last repetition). Piece measures approx. 12 cm / 4¾'' - READ MEASUREMENTS. STRIPE 2 (lace pattern): Switch color to petrol. Work A.1b over A.1a. Then work lace pattern as follows: Work 2 edge sts in garter st, * A.2 over the next 2 sts, repeat A.3 (= 7 sts) over the next 14 sts (= 2 times in total in width), A.4 over the next 3 sts *, repeat from *-* 5 times in total, then work A.2 over the next 2 sts, repeat A.3 (= 7 m) over the next 14 sts (= 2 times in total in width), A.4 over the next 2 sts (i.e. do not work last st in A.4), finish with 2 edge sts in garter st. Continue pattern like this. When A.2 to A.4 have been worked 1 time vertically, there are 201 sts on needle (= 33 sts in each of the first 5 repetitions of A.2 to A.4 and 32 sts in the last repetition of A.2 to A.4). Work next row as follows from RS: Work 2 edge sts in garter st, repeat A.5a (= 33 sts) 6 times in total in width but on last repetition in width do not work last st in diagram, finish with 2 edge sts in garter st. When A.5a has been worked 1 time vertically, there are 207 sts on needle (= 34 sts in each of the first 5 repetitions and 33 sts in the last repetition). STRIPE 3 (stockinette st): Switch color to green/turquoise. Work A.5b over A.5a. When A.5b has been worked 1 time vertically, there are 255 sts on needle (= 42 sts in each of the first 5 repetitions and 41 sts in the last repetition). Piece measures approx. 26 cm / 10 1/4''. Work 2 edge sts in garter st, work and inc as A.6a 6 times in total but on last repetition in width do not work last st in diagram, finish with 2 edge sts in garter st. When A.6a has been worked 3 times vertically - READ PATTERN, there are 327 sts on needle (= 54 sts in each of the first 5 repetitions of A.6a and 53 sts in the last repetition). Then work A.6b over A.6a (note that dec will continue over itself vertically until finished measurements) AT THE SAME TIME on first row in A.6b dec 4 sts evenly on each side of dec in every A.6b (= 8 sts dec in every A.6b = 48 sts dec in total on entire shawl) = 285 sts on needle (= 47 sts in each of the first 5 repetitions of A.6b and 46 sts in the last repetition). Piece measures approx. 37 cm / 14½''. STRIPE 4 (lace pattern): Switch color to dark purple. Work A.1b over A.6b. Then work lace pattern as follows: Work 2 edge sts in garter st, * A.2 over the next 2 sts, repeat A.3 (= 7 sts) over the next 42 sts (= 6 times in total in width), A.4 over the next 3 sts *, repeat from *-* 5 times in total, then work A.2 over the next 2 sts, repeat A.3 (= 7 m) over the next 42 sts (= 6 times in total in width), A.4 over the next 2 sts (i.e. do not work last st in A.4), finish with 2 edge sts in garter st. Continue pattern like this. When A.2 to A.4 have been worked 1 time vertically, there are 369 sts on needle (= 61 sts in each of the first 5 repetitions of A.2 to A.4 and 60 sts in the last repetition of A.2 to A.4). Work next row as follows from RS: Work 2 edge sts in garter st, repeat A.6b 6 times in total in width but on last repetition do not work last st in diagram, finish with 2 edge sts in garter st = 375 sts (= 62 sts in each of the first 5 repetitions of A.6b and 61 sts in the last repetition). Piece measures approx. 50 cm / 19 3/4''. STRIPE 5 (stockinette st): Switch to blue. Work A.1b AT THE SAME TIME on first row inc 4 sts evenly on each side of dec in every A.1b (= 8 sts inc in every A.1b = 48 sts inc in total on entire shawl) = 423 sts (= 70 sts in each of the first 5 repetitions of A.1b and 69 sts in the last repetition). Work 2 edge sts in garter st, work and inc as A.6a 6 times in total but on last repetition do not work last st in diagram, finish with 2 edge sts in garter st. When A.6a has been worked 3 times vertically, there are 495 sts on needle (= 82 sts in each of the first 5 repetitions of A.6a and 81 sts in the last repetition). then work A.6b over A.6a AT THE SAME TIME on first row in A.6b dec 4 sts evenly on each side of dec in every A.6b (= 8 sts dec in every A.6b = 48 sts dec in total on entire shawl) = 453 sts on needle (= 75 sts in each of the first 5 repetitions of A.6b and 74 sts in the last repetition). Piece measures approx. 61 cm / 24''. STRIPE 6 (lace pattern): Switch color to petrol. Work A.1b over A.6b. Then work lace pattern as follows: Work 2 edge sts in garter st, * A.2 over the next 2 sts, repeat A.3 (= 7 sts) over the next 70 sts (= 10 times in total in width), A.4 over the next 3 sts *, repeat from *-* 5 times in total, then work A.2 over the next 2 sts, repeat A.3 (= 7 sts) over the next 70 sts (= 10 times in total in width), A.4 over the next 2 sts (i.e. do not work last st in A.4), finish with 2 edge sts in garter st. Continue pattern like this. When A.2 to A.4 have been worked 1 time vertically, there are 537 sts on needle (= 89 sts in each of the first 5 repetitions of A.2 to A.4 and 88 sts in the last repetition of A.2 to A.4). Work next row as follows from RS: Work 2 edge sts in garter st, repeat A.6b 6 times in total but on last repetition do not work last st in diagram, finish with 2 edge sts in garter st = 543 sts (= 90 sts in each of the first 5 repetitions of A.6a and 89 sts in the last repetition). Loosely bind off. Piece measures approx. 74 cm / 29''. |

I've made this pattern in Drops Baby Alpaca Silk. I'm a little disappointed with the finished result, particularly in the lace stripes which are more textured than the illustration. Do you recommend blocking for the shawl?

Dear Carol, it is always useful to block knitted items, especially with lace patterns. Happy Crafting!

Bonjour , je suis débutante et je ne comprends pas comment faire après le rang n° 4 , a partir du moment où il faut prendre le diagramme , je suis perdue , merci de m'aider , je suis désespérée !!
30.10.2020 - 16:23DROPS Design answered:
Bonjour Mme Gautherot, au 4ème rang tricotez simplement ainsi: 2 m point mousse, tricotez le 1er rang de A.1a et répétez le 5 fois en largeur au total = (1 jeté, 1 m end, 1 jeté) -cf comment lire un diagramme -et terminez par 1 jeté, 1 m end, 1 jeté (= la 6ème fois, on ne tricote pas la dernière maille) et terminez par 2 m point mousse. Continuez ainsi, autrement dit, sur l'envers, lisez le diagramme de gauche à droite et sur l'endroit, répétez le 6 fois, mais la 6ème fois, ne tricotez pas la dernière m (le motif est ainsi symétrique des 2 côtés). Mettre un marqueur entre chaque diagramme à répéter en largeur peut vous aider à mieux visualiser rang après rang. Bon tricot!

Bonjour ma question concerne la rayure 4: à la fin de la rayure 3 on obtient 285 mailles rayure 4 : A1b représente 19 mailles à tricoter 14 fois + la 15eme fois sans la dernière maille donc 19 x 14 + 18 + 4 mailles lisières = 284 + 4 = 288 et pas 285... donc je ne tombe pas bien à la fin du premier rang de la rayure 4. pouvez vous m'éclairer? merci
06.11.2019 - 14:59DROPS Design answered:
Bonjour Delphine, quand on tricote A.1b au-dessus de A.6b, on doit conserver le même motif qu'avant, autrement dit, on fait les augmentations au début de A.1b (comme au début de A.6a = 1 jeté), au milieu de A.6b on tricote comme A.1b = 1 dim et on termine par 1 jeté à la fin de A. 1b à la fin du motif de A.6b, ainsi, il faut aligner les jetés et les diminutions de A.1b au-dessus de A.6b pour conserver le bon effet des pointes/zig-zags. Bon tricot!

Hej Helena, A.4 hittar du till vänster om A.2 och A.3. Lycka till :)

Bonjour, deuxième question: ensuite, vous dites: "au 1er rang de A.6b répartir 4 diminutions de chaque côté des diminutions de chaque A.6b (= 8 diminutions dans chaque A.6b = 48 diminutions au total sur le châle) " faut-il alors tricoter deux mailles ensemble? Merci Claire
16.02.2019 - 12:14DROPS Design answered:
Bonjour Mme Crespin, tout à fait, on va diminuer en tricotant 2 m ens à l'end le nombre de fois requis. Bon tricot!
18.02.2019 - 09:17Claire Crespin wrote:
Bonjour, pour la 3e rayure vous dites: "tricoter et augmenter 6 fois au total comme dans A.6a" de quelles augmentations parle-vous? s'agit-il des jetés du début du motif ou faut-il ajouter ces augmentations entre les motifs? Merci pour votre aide! Claire
16.02.2019 - 12:14DROPS Design answered:
Bonjour Mme Crespin, vous tricotez les 5 premiers motifs de A.6a en augmentant comme indiqué dans le diagramme, et au dernier motif (au 6ème), vous tricotez le diagramme sans la dernière maille sur l'endroit. On va augmenter de la même façon dans chaque A.6, mais on a toujours 1 m en moins dans le dernier (pour que les côtés du châle soient symétriques). Bon tricot!

Bonjour quelle erreur ai-je pu faire? je n'ai que 5 figures qui se répètent et pas six à la première rayure. il me semble que c'est au rang 11 que je passe de 6 à 5 figures. y a t'il des augmentations à faire en plus des jetés? merci
23.01.2019 - 23:09DROPS Design answered:
Bonjour Delphine, au début du châle, quand vous avez 15 m, vous répétez 6 x A.1a ainsi: 2 m point mousse, 5 x A.1a comme dans le diagramme (= 5 x 2 m au 1er rang), 1 x A.1a en omettant la dernière maille (= 1 x 1 m au 1er rang) et 2 m point mousse. Vous avez ainsi bien vos 6 motifs en largeur, le dernier (sur l'endroit) se tricote sans la dernière maille tout du long pour que le châle soit symétrique. Bon tricot!

Beschreibung Stricken 2. Streifen ist nicht korrekt. Wenn ich 117 Maschen habe, kann ich stricken: 2 Re kraus, einmal A.2-A.4 (mit A.3 doppelt)= 19 Maschen, plus 5 mal wiederholen, dann bin ich schon bei 115 Maschen, dann noch die 2 Randmaschen, also die Beschreibung passt nicht....
08.01.2018 - 18:38DROPS Design answered:
Liebe Frau López, mit 117 M haben Sie genügend Maschen um so zu stricken:2 M kraus rechts (A.2, 2xA.3, A.4)x 5 = 19 M x 5 = 95 M, (A.2, A.3x2, A.4 über nur 2 M) = 18 M, 2 M kraus rechts = 2 + 95 + 18 + 2 = 117 M. Viel Spaß beim stricken!
