Notes

Shawl #5/12

I immediately fell in love with this pattern the first time I saw it.
Big hesitation about the colours. We’ll see if this work out…

A very easy pattern. Much gartestitch. Great result. Too many colour-possibilities. I will have to make another one. At least.

I made a yarn over between the two first stitches which I slipped on the next row, as many other suggested. The border is still a bit tight.

My mods:
knitted as lace-version until I had the count of stiches on the needle as for the fingering-version in the second part. Then began short-rows, repeated for 8 times.

Cast of with the Surprisingly Stretchy Bind Of-method (see Here comes the sun for link)
