Joyful stripes, eyelets and a flexible sizing, so nice! Can’t resist to join this. woman-juggling clapper performing_arts revolving_hearts

Final episode suggests to add a picot BO, and a picot BO for the prov CO as well. I will graft beginning and end together to create a cowl or loop scarf.

This MKAL was packed with a great variety of lace patterns, combined to a fresh and joyfull colorblocking design. The daily clues felt quite stressful even though the daily amount wasn’t too much.

Size: 40 x 220 cm

06.02.2025 - Update

Adding a garter border to both edges, because the untidy edges kept me from using this. Using color C, Waldspaziergang, 2x13gr
Row 1: Pick up and knit 5 sts out of 3 garter bumps.
Row 2-7: knit
Row 8: Islandic bind off
