SAZAE is a Japanese word meaning “Turban Shell”.
Why turban shell? It’s because my husband said the stitch pattern is funny and it looks like “sazae” …

This pattern contains two decrease options to create different finishing looks. The first one is a ‘knit all’ option giving a stockinette look, and the second is a more textured one with a garter stitch finishing (thus, knit and purl are involved).

SAZAE is my second written pattern. If you find any mistakes, please feel free to contact me on Raverly. Thanks in advance!
