Pattern is both written and charted.
- This pattern is written to get the most out of your yarn. Just finish a row when you’re getting to the end of your yardage (or rip back to where you finished a row), and follow the “Finishing” instruction.
- Once you get the first few rows established, use a pin-style marker to mark the RS of the work. Keep moving it up as your shawl grows so you can keep track of which row you’re on.
- You can easily count how many rows you have worked by counting the number of 7-dc groups on your shawl.
- Magic Ring should be worked as follows: make a loop in your yarn a few inches from the end and pinch the overlap where the two parts cross between forefinger and thumb. Make sure the loop is situated so that your working yarn is hanging to the right. Insert your hook into the loop and pull up the working yarn, yarnover and pull through existing loop (this will count as the first chain in your ch 5).
