Stockinette and reverse stockinette bands form wide horizontal strips for a textural fabric. Yarn overs at 5 different locations create little lighting bolt motifs and the added stitches result in a large expansive fabric.

Available in German here.

Substituting fingering or lace weight yarns will result in an equally nice and thinner fabric.
