Jamboree
Jamboree is a crisp lace accessory that can be knit in a variety of yarn weights, gauges and sizes to suit your preference. Utilising an easily remembered eight row pattern, there’s plenty going on to keep your interest, but the pattern is easy enough for TV knitting without having to pay too much attention.
The stitch pattern creates a snug and cosy textured accessory, but a hard blocking works its magic and opens the lace out, giving a multifunctional light and airy finished accessory that can be worn anytime, anywhere in casual or formal situations, and everywhere in between.
Instructions are provided in both written and charted format, in two sizes (scarf/wrap) and the pattern is written for fingering weight yarn, but can be knit in any weight yarn (note that if you do this the total yarn required will vary from that stated in the pattern).
FINISHED SIZE AFTER BLOCKING:
Width across short edges approx 9 (18) in, length approx 70 (82) in
The burgundy scarf sample shown was knit in Old Maiden Aunt Superwash Merino 4ply (400yds/100g) in the Aniseed colourway.
GAUGE AFTER BLOCKING:
18 stitches and 20 rows to 4 inches (10cm) in pattern approx
MATERIALS:
400 (800) yds fingering weight yarn
4.5mm (US7) needles
4 (9) stitch markers (optional)
Tapestry needle
Waste yarn for blocking (optional)
SKILL LEVEL:
Easy - suitable for a beginner. Pattern includes s2kp (double decrease) and reading of charts (but pattern is also written out fully for those who prefer not to use charts)
