FdA 141 Couvre Lit au Tricot d'Art

“Le plus beau de cadeaux de mariage”

Size: the center square is 120 x 120 cm, which would make a nice tablecloth by itself. The entire bedspread measures 255 x 220 cm. The width of the inner band is 30 cm and the corner squares for the inner band measure 30 x 30 cm. The outer band, the edging, measures 33 cm in width. There are a few extra rounds of purl and eyelet that are not shown on the charts. Those increase the size to approximately 255 cm by 220 cm.

Materials: 1500g of rayon, size 3 knitting needles. The instructions say to start on double-pointed needles, but mostly it requires circular needles and lots of stitch markers. The weight/yardage of the rayon isn’t specified so use thread or yarn appropriate to the size of the needles. Size 3 knitting needles, presumably it is 3mm.
