MATERIALS
Fiber 7 oz wool, assorted colors. I used over 35 colors of yarn that were dyed in the wool, blended, or dyed in the yarn.

Yarn 2-ply or 3-ply; DK weight (about 1,200 ypp; 11 wpi), assorted colors, about 450 yd total (slip-stitch pattern). 2-ply or 3-ply; sportweight (about 1,700 ypp; 14 wpi), assorted colors, about 350 yd total (striped back).

Needles Size 6 (4.0 mm) 32” circular (cir) or long enough to accommodate the stitches; second cir in same size or smaller to hold sts while grafting. Adjust needle size if necessary to obtain the correct gauge.

Other Supplies Markers (m); smooth waste yarn for provisional CO; tapestry needle.

Gauge 19 sts and 48 rows = 4” in patt with heavier yarn; 19 sts and 36 rows = 4” in St st and thinner yarn. Note: The slip-stitch pattern will appear to be 36 rows to 4”, but it takes working 48 rows of the chart to get there. Exact gauge is not critical to the success of this project.

Finished Size About 6¼“ x 56” plus 7” fringe.
