At her request, I knitted a shawl for my daughter-in-law.
I had no pattern so the instructions on how I did it are below.
I used Plymouth Encore Chunky in color 6001 Cocoa
Needle Size 11
CO 72
Row 1 - S1wyib, K2P2 repeat til last stitch, P1
Row 2 - repeat row 1
Row 3 - S1wyib, P2K2, repeat til last stitch, P1
Row 4 - report row 3
Slipping the first stitch and purling the last stitch on every row makes a nice edge.
The finished rectangle was 61” x 23” before blocking.
After blocking it was about 75" long
Then I made two pockets in the same pattern to the size of 10” x 12” and sewed them on. Added the fringe.
Lovely. One I may try. Thank you
