Gallimaufry is knitted in two identical pieces joined at the centre. There are no spacer sections or transition rows; each of the lace patterns flows naturally into the next one.

The design can be knitted in fingering weight/sock yarn or laceweight yarn. The same charts are used for both versions but the number of stitches and chart repeats are different. For the fingering weight/sock yarn version on 4.5mm needles, you will need approximately 800m of yarn; for the laceweight version on 3.5mm needles, approximately 1000m. The two versions are similar in size - 230cm x 50cm for the fingering weight/sock yarn wrap blocked with straight side edges and 220cm x 50cm for the laceweight wrap blocked with pointed edges.

Please note that Gallimaufry is fully charted and there are no line-by-line written instructions.
