Nihal
Nihal is a majestic knit that requires patience and attention, but pays off with an elegant and precious result. Entirely worked in a twist stitch pattern that rhythms the work and reaches its apex in the final section, it is a minimalist and refined, but easy to wear accessory. Also thanks to its elongated shape and considerable size.
It is worked sideways from the tip to the bottom edge in a single piece, and finished with an I-cord edge worked at the same time and used for binding off.
Measurement after blocking: 200 cm / 78.75” wingspan x 66 cm / 26” depth.
Gauge: 22 sts x 27 rows = 10 cm / 4” in 1x3 twist rib pattern (as described in Section 1) using 3.5 mm (US 4) needles.
Yarn: 1100 metres / 1200 yards (3 skeins of 366 metres / 400 yards each) of fingering yarn.
Please consider that almost the full skeins have been used up to knit the sample.
Yarn used for the sample: Positive Ease Merino Single, 100% Merino Superwash, 366 metres (400 yards) /100 gr, color Habitat.
Needles: 60 cm / 24” circular needle size 3.5 mm (US 4) or straight needles; same size cable needle (optional, the crossed stitches can be easily worked without cable needle, see notes for help).
Notions: markers (optional), tapestry needle
Nihal è un progetto maestoso che richiede pazienza ed attenzione, ma ripaga con un risultato finale senza precedenti!
Interamente lavorato con un motivo a maglia ritorta che ritma il lavoro e raggiunge il suo apice nella sezione finale dove il motivo si arricchisce ulteriormente di un intricato intreccio, Nihal è uno scialle elegante e raffinato, ma portabilissimo, anche grazie alle misure considerevoli e alla forma allungata.
E’ lavorato trasversalmente dalla punta al bordo finale in un pezzo unico ed arricchito da una chiusura I-cord che continua il bordo laterale senza interruzioni.
Misure dopo il bloccaggio: 200 cm apertura x 66 cm profondità.
Campione: 22 m x 27 ferri = 10 cm / 4” lavorato con il punto a coste ritorte 1 x 3 (come descritto
nella Sezione 1) e con i ferri n. 3.5 mm (US 4).
Filato: 1100 metri / 1200 yards (3 matasse da 366 metri / 400 yards ciascuna) di filato peso fingering.
Filato utilizzato per il campione: Positive Ease Merino Single, 100% Merino Superwash, 366 metri (400 yards) /100 gr, colore Habitat.
Si prega di considerare che le matasse sono state utilizzate quasi per intero per lavorare lo scialle.
Ferri: Ferri circolari n. 3.5 mm (US4) lunghezza 60 cm / 24”
o ferri piani; ferro ausiliario della stessa misura dei ferri
(facoltativo, i punti intrecciati possono essere facilmente lavorati senza ferro ausiliario, vedi note per tutorial)
Accessori: marcapunti, ago da lana.
Thanks to my very patient and lovely testers, for patiently following me in my multiple corrections along the test! Thanks to LaVisch for tech editing my work and to elena62 for checking it again and translating into Italian.
PS: If you wonder about the name, Nihal is the main character of Chronicles of the Emerged World by Licia Troisi ;)
