Measurements exclude 10cm (4”) knottted fringe.

Yarn requirements: 160g (6oz) Falcon’s Llama 4-ply (substite: Francine Dunkley or Jaeger 100% alpaca; 4 ply fingerings).

The pattern creates the illusion of shaping in the centre of the pattern; actually, the only shaping is done by picot increases at the beginning of each row.

Looped picot cast-off.
