Designed to commemorate the fortieth anniversary of the Kitchener-Waterloo Knitters’ Guild, this shawl features faceted shapes worked in eyelets, garter stripes, and a sawtooth edge. Instructions are included for one size only, but with extra yarn, you can work as many repeats of the stitch pattern as desired.

Choose red, like the sample—the traditional gift for a fortieth anniversary is ruby, after all—or knit the shawl in your favourite colour.

The techniques you will need to know, or learn, to complete this project are:

• cast on;
• knit and purl;
• yo increase;
• kyok double increase;
• k2tog decrease;
• ssk decrease;
• cdd double decrease;
• lace bind-off.

Thank you to Feisty Fibres for supplying the yarn for this project.
