Notes

  • This shawl is worked back and forth in rows. A circular needle is used to accommodate the large number of stitches.

Errata: Magazine version: For anyone making this, keep in mind when you put the second part back on the needles and it tells you to work rows 1-62 as for first half, make sure you are reversing the shaping or you will get a funny shape!!
Chart B shows it correctly.

The designers PDF is written clearly, with row by row instructions. A portion of the instructions are charted only.
