Gauge and Size:
On 3.75 mm (US 5) and sport weight yarn 23 sts & 32 rows to 4” in stocking st.
The finished blocked size is 80 ”wide and 23” deep. the patterned edge is about 46” and the bind off about 50”, so it is close to symmetrical.
Gauge is not critical as the size is easily adjusted by changing the number of repeats worked.
Yarn required:
100-200g yarn depending on weight.
Sport weight 500m, sock ~500 - 600m and lace ~700 - 800m
A note on yarn choice: use a close to solid colour to make the edge pattern the star!
