New Leaf
ATTERN:
See diagrams M.1 and M.2. Diagrams show pattern from RS.
KNITTING TIP:
It is very important to cast on and cast off loosely so that the
edges can be blocked and shaped into small tips when the shawl
is finished.
-------------------------------------------------------SHAWL:
Cast on 87 sts on 2 circular needles size 3.5 mm with Lace. Pull
out one of the needles and work first row as follows from RS:
Diagram M.1A (= 7 sts), diagram M.1B over the next 70 sts, finish
with diagram M.1C (= 10 sts). When diagram M.1 has been
worked one time vertically, continue with diagram M.2 (instead
of diagram M.1) the same way until piece measures approx. 148
cm (or desired length). Work the last 2 rows in diagram M.2 A, B
and C one more time, then cast off very LOOSELY.
BLOCKING:
Place the shawl in lukewarm water until it is soaking wet.
Carefully squeeze the water out of the shawl - do not twist the
shawl - then roll the shawl in a towel and squeeze to remove more water - the shawl will now only be moist.
Place the shawl on a carpet or mattress - carefully stretch it out to size and fasten it with pins. NOTE: Insert a pin in
every repetition along the short sides where 3 sts were worked tog and 1 pin in each corner (= 10 pins in each side).
Lightly pull at every pin so that the edge is shaped into small tips. Leave to dry. Repeat the process when the garment
has been washed.
