The Scarf worked in garter stitch along with traditional lace knitting techniques and Orenburg lace motifs - yarn over and knit two together and diagonals, mouse print, peas.
Three of traditional Orenburg knitted-lace elements are used in the pattern - Diagonals, Peas and Mouse Print. Borders teeth, that decorated scarf designed in Old Russian tradition and knitting technique.
This project is ideal for knitters looking for moderately challenging knitted-lace experience.
Borders (points) - knitting technique were used in Old Russian shawls, that I modify for this scarf. Unique construction - no wrong side.
Each element shown on chart in color - diagonals -green, peas -blue, mouse print -dark blue.
The scarf is worked in garter- stitch lace, with the blank squares of the chart representing knit stitches on both right-side and wrong-side rows.
