spewed forth : lee does a purl row in ther make it Old Shale? Dunno? I've seen it on garter, on stockinette, on stockinarter. I've seen it called Old Shale, Print o'the Wave, Feather and Fan, probably a few other things depending on which book I pull off the shelf and whether it was written by a Shetlander or by somebody else I particularly like to use it as edging on a triangular shawl with the body knitted in garter stitch. +++++++++++++ Reply to the list as I do not publish an email address to USENET. This practice has cut my spam by more than 95%. Of course, I did have to abandon a perfectly good email account... |

Try doing a right click on the web address, then selecting Open. That
works for me. Also, Interweave has a book out now with nothing but shawl and wrap patterns to knit. They are all pretty and vary in levels of difficulty. NAYY Shana |

how about a triangle shawl with lacey holes that is simple and quick.
cast on 4sts Garter stitch 2 rows Row 1. Knit 1 Make one by picking up the bar/loop inbetween the stitch you just knitted and the next stitch, knit it off, Yarn forward Slip one, knit one pass slipped stitch over Make one knit last stitch or in pattern terms it would read Row One: K1; Mk1; YF S1 K1 PSSO; Mk1; K1 Row Two: K1 Purl to last stitch K1 Row Three: K1; Mk1; YF S1 K1 PSSO; til last stitch Mk1 K1. Row Four and every alt row as row TWO. Row Five as three Repeat last two rows until it is long enough and wide enough for the wrap you need. then cast(bind) off all stitches and add a fringe on the two edges if you want to. Hope this is clear enough hth cher "enigma" wrote in message . .. i'm looking for a knitting pattern for a nice shawl or lapghan to make for my grandma's 101st birthday in May. i'm not a fast knitter so something fast & easy would be best, i think, but something with more pizazz than plain garter stitch. it *has* to be knit, as my crochet talents extend only to cat toys any suggestions? lee -- war is peace freedom is slavery ignorance is strength 1984-George Orwell |

Welcome to the group! ) Where are you from... not *exactly*, but what
country, state, province, or whatever? Cute name by the way... I don't mean to insult, so please don't take this wrong if I am off the mark... but does it have anything to do with dogs? Gemini (Ontario, Canada) - who loves dogs! ;o) wrote in message oups.com... I am new to knitting and am looking forward to this group. barkleyfluffy |

o.uk: how about a triangle shawl with lacey holes that is simple and quick. snip thanks, Cher. this sounds easy & pretty. would you choose a silk/alpaca (or silk/merino) or a mohair yarn for this? mohair is light & warm, but the fuzzies might be annoying... lee |
