SIZE:

72” x 50" (183 x 127 cm), blocked

MATERIALS:

Expression Fiber Arts North DK yarn

Shown in colors: A) Winter Cabin, B) Sledding, C) Vancouver, D) Slopes, and E) Snowy Fields

1 skein of each color needed (264 yds/241 m per 3.5 oz/100 g skein). 

If those colors aren't available, any from this category will work.

• Click the Videos tab to watch a video tutorial on how to work the kfb, pfb, and Baby Eyelet Cable stitches.
• The sample shown used approximately 1249 yds/1142 m total: Color A: 246 yds/225 m, Color B: 256 yds/234 m, Color C: 251 yds/230 m, Color D: 244 yds/223 m, and Color E: 252 yds/230 m. Please note, the yardages given will have you using nearly all of the yarn in each color. Please consider purchasing a second skein if you feel that you might run out.
• All slipped stitches are slipped purlwise with yarn in back.
• When working Baby Eyelet Cables, keep working yarn to WS (back) at all times.
• Between Rows 66 and 380, only the odd rows are written out. The even rows are all repeats of Row 66. Color changes are written within odd row instructions to avoid confusion.
• When working through color changes, trap the non-working yarn behind the second stitch (from the end) of the working color to avoid loose strands carried up the sides.
• Color changes are created by a gradual increase of the new color and gradual decrease of the previous color. You can change more or less frequently, as desired.
• When cutting yarn to end a color, leave a 5-6” (12.5-15 cm) tail for weaving.
• The body of the shawl is worked in 12-row repeats, with increases on each odd row within. To decrease the length of the shawl, remove groups of 12 rows prior to Row 380 (such as ending after Row 367 or 355). To increase the length, add groups of 12 rows (such as repeating Rows 368-379). You will need to end on a row that finishes with "k3, p1, kfb" for the border rows to line up. You can then proceed to Row 380. NOTE: the stitch counts will be different if you alter the number of body rows worked. Adjusting the length will adjust the width proportionally.
• The designer chose Jeny's Surprisingly Stretchy Bind Off. However, any stretchy bind off will work.  

Errata:

Row 18: Should be written as: P1, k3, p3, k3, sm, k3.

Rows 361, 363, 365, 373, 375, and 377 updated.

Row 403 updated.

Rows 423- 448 updated.
