Notes

  • If using mini skeins, change when you feel necessary, using as much as possible.
  • Please note that ALL of the yardage from the sock skein is used with very little extra.
  • Use contrasting/coordinating colors
  • Ignore color changes for a single color garment
  • Use Color B for all eyelet wedges instead or in addition to lateral braid sections
  • Change colors as often as you like for a stripy shawl
  • Great stash buster
  • Knit eyelet rows with contrast color
  • Multi-color variegated, speckled or solids…anything will be beautiful
  • Mix different colors for the braid stitch rows
  • Repeat directions marked with an asterisk ()
  • Easy & flexible pattern…don’t stress about stitch counts or eyelet counts, very forgiving if off a stitch or two
  • German Short Rows are used for the w&t but feel free to use any method preferred
