Material:

200 250 g( 8.5 to 10 oz) lace yarn, 600 - 800 m/ 100g ( 660 - 875 y/ 4 oz) depending on size of scarf you'd like 50 g ( 2 oz) Rocailles/beads 4.5 - 4.6 mm Circular needle 3.5 mm (US4) 150 cm ( 60") Tapestry needle, scissiors Crochet hook 4mm and 1 mm ( US G and O )

Important:

Read the written instruction carefuly! Provisional cast on 88 stitches, 1 row = WS purl than start with row 1 of chart 1 work that section for 3 times ( For Ladies with smaler shoulders work it only 2 times)

Work chart 2 for 1 time, after them work chart 1 for 1 time and then repeat chart 2 for 1 time. The right side of shoulder is finished. Now you work chart 1 for a minimum of 6 times. More repeats are on your own. Carefully remove the yarn from the provisional cast on and work the stitches as follow: 2 (3) times chart 1 right opposed. The first (right) shoulder you have worked chart 2 as follow.... Row until the rotate sign, rotated, "double stitch" and WS purled. Now you have to work... WS purl until rotate, slip stich (as if you purl) with yarn in front of you and finish the row. This double stitches will always be worked as ONE! Work both sides in the same length.

Finishing:

Use crochet hook (G) for bind off. Slip the 1st stitch with the crochet hook and work 5 chains \*slip the next stitch and decrease both ( stitch and chain) with a single crochet, work 5 chains\*\* repeat \* _ \*\* until the end. To do the fringe you need a kitchen slat (6" long). Wind the yarn around the slat and cut it on one side. For the same length of fringe winding has to be exact. For one fringe you need two strands. Put 2 strands together and as a half, pull the loop through one of the chain space, pull the ends of strands through the loop and pull carefully. Repeat until each space is done. When you don't like fringe, bind off as follow... \*Get 3 stitches with your crochet hook and decrease 3 together, work 3 chains\*\* repeat until the end. Wet block by soaking in lukewarm water or a soak bath for 20 minutes, untill your shawl/table cloth is thoroughly satured. DON T rub, wring or throw it! Use a large bath towel.... Block it and let it dry ( watch your cat..!!!!) Do you have any questions? Feel free to contact me by mail@sagermania.de I 'm wishing you a lot of fun while knitting and of course looks full of admiration all around you... Annette Sager
