------------------------------------------------------- EXPLANATIONS FOR THE PATTERN: ------------------------------------------------------- RIDGE/GARTER STITCH (worked back and forth): Knit all rows. 1 ridge in height = Knit 2 rows. EDGE STITCH IN GARTER STITCH: As the pattern includes working 2 rows from the right side followed by 2 rows from the wrong side, the garter stitches need to be worked as follows: * Knit from the right side, purl from the right side, purl from the wrong side, knit from the wrong side *, work from *-*. The edge stitches are worked with double strand each time there are 2 strands on the same side. PATTERN: See diagrams A.1 to A.13. A.1 and A.4 = sides of shawl. A.3 = mid-stitch on shawl. 2-COLOURED PATTERN IN ENGLISH RIB (back and forth): The striped pattern is worked in English rib as shown in diagrams A.1 to A.13. To get the 2-coloured effect, the stripes are worked alternately with 1 row camel beige and 1 row fall forest. * Work 1 row from the right side with camel beige, push the stitches back to the far end of the needle, so the next row is also worked from the right side. Work this row with fall forest. Work 1 row from the wrong side with camel beige, push the stitches back to the far end of the needle, so the next row is also worked from the wrong side. Work this row with fall forest *, work from *-* to finished length. Empty and filled squares (outside the diagram); show if the row is worked from the right or wrong side. The square also shows whether the row is worked with camel beige or fall forest. Read KNITTING TIP-1 below. KNITTING TIP-1: If you are unsure which colour to use on the next row when working 2-coloured English rib, you can see the colour used on the previous round by looking at the edge stitches. KNITTING TIP-2 (number of stitches): All stitch-counts given when working English rib do not include the yarn overs; the yarn overs belong to the knitted stitches and they are counted together as 1 stitch. ------------------------------------------------------- START THE PIECE HERE: ------------------------------------------------------- SHAWL – SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE: The piece is worked back and forth with stripes and 2-coloured leaf pattern in English rib. The English rib pattern changes to reversed stocking stitch, with English rib stitches in vertical stripes between. Then the English rib stitches change to fan-pattern with reversed stocking stitch between. SHAWL: Cast on 6 stitches with circular needle size 3.5 mm and camel beige. Work the first row as follows (= wrong side): 1 edge stitch in GARTER STITCH – read description above, * 1 yarn over, purl 1 *, work from *-* until there is 1 stitch left on the row, 1 yarn over and finish with 1 edge stitch in garter stitch = 11 stitches. Work the next row with camel beige (= right side): 1 edge stitch in garter stitch, knit until there is 1 stitch left on the row (yarn overs are knitted twisted to avoid holes) and finish with 1 edge stitch in garter stitch. Work the next row with camel beige (= wrong side): 1 edge stitch in garter stitch, * 1 yarn over, slip 1 stitch as if to purl, knit 1 *, work from *-* until there is 1 stitch left before the edge stitch, 1 yarn over, slip 1 stitch as if to purl and finish with 1 edge stitch in garter stitch. Turn the piece. Then work 2-COLOURED PATTERN IN ENGLISH RIB and EDGE STITCH IN GARTER STITCH – read descriptions above. WORK A.1A, A.2, A.3A AND A.4A AS FOLLOWS: Starting from the right side. Work A.1A (= 2 stitches), A.2 (= 3 stitches), A.3A (= 1 mid-stitch), work A.2 (= 3 stitches) and finish with A.4A (= 2 stitches). Continue this pattern. When A.2 has been completed in height there are 59 stitches on the needle – read KNITTING TIP-2. The piece measures approx. 9 cm down the mid-stitch. WORK A.1B, A.5, A.6, A.7, A.3B AND A.4B AS FOLLOWS: Starting from the right side: Work A.1B (= 2 stitches), A.5 (= 9 stitches), A.6 (= 8 stitches), A.7 (= 10 stitches), work A.3B (= 1 mid-stitch), A.5 (= 9 stitches), A.6 (= 8 stitches), A.7 (= 10 stitches) and finish with A.4B (= 2 stitches). Continue this pattern. When A.6 has been completed in height there are 75 stitches on the needle. Continue by repeating A.1B, A.5, A.6, A.7, A.3B and A.4B in height; each time you have repeated the diagrams in height, you increase 16 stitches on the row and there is room for 1 more repeat of A.6 in width between each A.5 and A.7. Continue like this until A.6 has been worked a total of 13 times in height = 267 stitches on the row. The piece measures approx. 50 cm along the mid-stitch. WORK A.1C, A.8, A.9, A.10, A.3C AND A.4C AS FOLLOWS: Starting from the right side: Work A.1C (= 2 stitches), A.8 (= 9 stitches), A.9 over the next 112 stitches (= 14 repeats of 8 stitches), work A.10 (= 10 stitches), A.3C (= 1 mid-stitch), work A.8 (= 9 stitches), A.9 over the next 112 stitches (= 14 repeats of 8 stitches), A.10 (= 10 stitches) and finish with A.4C (= 2 stitches). Continue this pattern. When A.9 has been completed in height there are 491 stitches on the needle and the piece measures approx. 70 cm down the mid-stitch. WORK A.1D, A.11, A.12, A.13, A.3D AND A.4D AS FOLLOWS: Starting from the right side: Work A.1D (= 2 stitches), A.11 (= 25 stitches), A.12 over the next 192 stitches (= 8 repeats of 24 stitches), work A.13 (= 26 stitches), A.3D (= 1 mid-stitch), work A.11 (= 25 stitches), A.12 over the next 192 stitches (= 8 repeats of 24 stitches), A.13 (= 26 stitches) and finish with A.4D (= 2 stitches). Continue this pattern. When A.12 has been completed in height there are 531 stitches on the needle and the piece measures approx. 80 cm down the mid-stitch. Cast off using fall forest from the wrong side – with knit over knit, purl over purl – NOTE: The yarn overs are cast off as normal stitches – in addition make 1 extra yarn over between each stitch without a yarn over (this yarn over is worked as 1 stitch and then cast off as normal). Doing this gives the fans a nice, arched finish. |
