Falling Leaves
I was asked by a very dear friend to make her a shaw. She is a true Earth Mother and loves any shade of green. When I saw this yarn I immediately thought of her and knew the two had to meet! I picked a leaf pattern that reverses half way through the shawl so the leaves fall"down" on both sides. I also added a mock cable to separate the lace border from the body of the shaw.All the increases and decreases takeplace at the neck edge of the design. Description: This is an elongated shaw knitted sideways with a lace border, a mock cable braid as a divider and a garter stitch edging. It is designed to be increased until you are halfway through your yarn, then decreased until you're finished. The pattern is both charted and written. knowledge of increases and decreases is helpful but this could be made by the adventurous beginning laceknitter. Needles: US6or 4mm Yarn: 3.5 skeins of Red Heart Heart and Sole sock yarn (70% superwash, 30% nylon) 213 yrds/50 grms. Total Yardage:approx750yrds Gauge: isn't that important. It's a sideways shaw so increase until you are halfway through your yarn, then decrease until the end. The length and width of the shaw will depend on the type of yarn used and how many increase patterns you do.Pattern shown was made with 10 repeats of chart B. Blocked Measurements: 88" wide by 23.5" long Pattern Notes: There are 4 charts for this design. Chart A is the first chart and takes you to the main pattern design. Chart B is meant simply as a follow along increase chart for the body of the shaw. The number of knit stitches for the body willdepend on how big you make the shaw. Chart C is a follow along decrease chart for the body of the shaw. Again, the number of knit stitches ill depend on how big you've made the shaw. Chart D is the final decrease shaw with the BO on the last RS row of the chart. All charts are read right to left on odd-numbered rows, and left to right on even numbered rows.
