Askew
Knit from the smallest bottom point up to the widest edge, Askew cannot decide which way it wants to go. It curves right, then veers to the left; is half garter stitch and half stockinette stitch.
Gone astray, it’s clearly askew.
Also available en Francais thanks to the lovely Marion/emmacr for translating the pattern!! Vous recevrez les versions anglaise et francaise lorsque vous achetez les modele. Merci beaucoup!! :D
