Kim's Lace Scarf Requires about 400 m (2-3, 50g balls) of fine sock, baby, or luxury light-weight yarn. London-Wul is happy to provide this pattern as a kit for you using our own luxurious Dream Come True alpaca/angora blend. Instructions: Using 5 mm needles, cast on 43 (57) sts. Knit 4 rows. Lace pattern: Row 1,3,5) K1 *yo, k3, ssk, yo, sl1-k2tog-psso, yo, k2tog, k3, yo, k1*, repeat from * to * until end of row. Rows 2, 4) Purl Row 6) Knit yo=yarn over, ssk= slip one st as if to knit, then another. Insert your left needle from left to right into the front of the two just-slipped sts, then knit these two sts off together. sl1-k2tog-psso= slide one, knit 2 together, pass slipped stitch over (decreases two stitches) "I don't bother with a row counter, but instead count the "knobs" below my needle from the sl1-k2tog-psso. When I have five "knobs" above the last purl ridge on the right side, I knit back a row rather than purling. End by knitting four rows and casting off. Block first, then darn in your ends."This pattern may be reproduced and shared with others as long as the following information is included: Designed by Catherine Vardy, Fireweed Originals, vardyc@nbnet.nb.ca, 2000. |
