Notes

31.07.2016

MC - blue

CC - green

Row 1 (set up row) sl1, k1, m1r, pm, k1, m1l, k2
Row 2 (even rows - wrong side) sl1, p1, yo, purl to the last 2 stitches, yo, p2
Row 3 (odd rows - right side) sl1, k1, yo, knit to marker, m1r, sm, k1 (center stitch), sm, m1l, knit to the last 2 stitches, yo, k2

Repeat rows 2 and 3 until 265 stitches ending in green

Then 2 knits in blue doing nothing- adding no stitches.

Do chart. Questions about chart check the French version

Math
15 red box repeats at 16 stitches per red box equals 240 stitches. Plus 25 stitches for the black box sides. Total of 265

Pattern
Start pattern with blue and then change to green
Knit 22 green strips in total
Then knit 2 rows of blue with no changes in pattern stitches or work - start chart

22 green strips 132 stitches

This pattern is easy in the beginning. The stripes are easy until you reach the chart.p/ patterning work. And it was from here That I questioned every stitch I was knitting. I was double checking all the time. Then I found Thornwood’s notes and then the patterning got easier. If your knitting it in English print the French chart out too.
I have no idea why the English chart is the way that it is. It’s not like you have to speak or read French do to the chart work. That’s what frustrating about the pattern - hence why it’s free, I guess.

Bind off ~ went up 2 needle sizes and did the pattern’s recommended bind off. I like that bind off
