Minnesota Yarn Shop Hop 2013

This little shawlette was designed for the Minnesota Yarn Shop Hop 2013. The Shop Hop theme for 2013 is “iYarn@”. At 3 Kittens we often knit at the coffee shop, so our variation of the theme is “iYarn@the coffee shop.” This design is named for our local coffee shop, Caribou Coffee - where they know us all by name!

Caribou is comprised of stockinette stitch sections alternating with reverse stockinette stitch sections with an eyelet row. Stitches that you will need to know to complete the shawl are: knit, purl, kfb (knit front and back), pfb (purl front and back), k2tog, yo.

Yarn Requirements: 1-2 skeins Lorna’s Laces Shepherd Sport (200 yards, 100 grams) - small requires one skein, medium requires two
Sizes: S (M) - the green shawl photographed is the smaller version
Finished Measurements: approximately 7” wide x 38” long (12” wide x 62” long)
Gauge: 20sts/4” in stockinette stitch, blocked

Please Note - There is an error in Row 8 of the printed version handed out at the Minnesota Yarn Shop Hop. Row 8 should read: k1, yo, k1, yo, * k2tog, yo, * repeat from * to * until last 3 sts, k1, yo, k2. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause! This error has been corrected on patterns purchased after April 15.
