farid shawl
stitch : 2 different arrow lace patterns (knit, purl, yarnovers, k2tog, ssk)
cast on : garter tab cast on
shape : triangle (very large: think blanket)
directions : charted
yarn: 3 skeins + a dribble of paton’s classic wool in russet
needles us 10
gauge
13 sts x 12 rows = 4 inches in lace pattern (steam blocked)
11 sts x 12 rows = 4 inches in lace pattern (wet blocked)
final measurements
72 x 32 inches (lightly blocked)
82 x 32 inches (wet blocked)
a little note:** i steam blocked mine, which gave it a little stretch and shape. wet blocking will really enlarge the shawl even more. please keep that in mind when knitting. actually think that i am going to go back and wet block mine. (i want BIG.) i will try to post the dimensions on that after i do it. thanks.*
ERRATA: There is one extra yarn over in Chart A, the first line of the first boxed repeat. So be sure to remove it or mark it out.
And the description of ssk says to slip purlwise twice, then k through back loop. But slipping purlwise just passes the sts to the right needle. Ssk is slip knit wise twice, then knit those together through back loop.
