​Three Colored Long Shawl
​Three Colored Long Shawl

Size:

44″ inside circumference
88″ outside circumference
9″ tall
Yarn:
Frabjous Fibers, Wonderland Yarns: March Hare ~ Dormouse #34: 4 oz skein, Color A; “Down the Rabbit Hole” Mome Rath #24: mini skein pack, Colors B, C, D, E, & F
Needles:
US 8/5.00 mm
Gauge:
18 sts x 29 rows = 4″ in garter st
Stitches and Skills used:
k ~ knit
p ~ purl
m1 ~ make one
co ~ cast on
st(s) ~ stitch(es)
Getting Started:
Use any method of a make one increase that you prefer for the m1 stitches.
Make sure your gauge is correct. If your tension is too much looser than mine, you may find you do not have enough yarn to finish the border. If this is the case, omit rows 5 & 6 from the border.
This pattern uses short rows for shaping the wedges. In the pattern you will see “wrap and turn” listed when you turn a short row. It is important that when you come back the other direction and work into the wrapped st, you pick up the wrap; otherwise you will have a little hole in your work. This is done b slipping the wrap off the st, and then knitting through both loops (the st and the wrap). If you want to learn more about short rows, there is a wonderful free class on Craftsy that explains it very well.
