This is a quick and easy one-skein project that I made for a co-worker. It's warm enough to double over and wear during the winter, but can be worn open during warmer weather as well. It is knit-in-the-round so no need for sewing the edges together.
Materials you will need:
- Approximately 85 grams of worsted weight yarn. I used Malabrigo in the color Purple Magic
- US #9 circular needles 22-30"
- Stitch marker
- Tapestry needle
Skills you will need:
- Casting on
- Knit
- Purl
- K2tog
- SSK
- YO
- Binding off
- Weaving in ends
Begin by casting on 132 stitches using your preferred method. The cast on should be a little bit stretchy. After that there are 39 rows of basic knitting to create a very simple, reversible lace pattern.
- Row 1 = Knit across
- Row 2 = Purl across
- Row 3 = Knit across
- Row 4 = Purl across
- Row 5 = Knit across
- Row 6 = *YO, K2tog* repeat to marker
- Row 7 = Knit across
- Row 8 = Purl across
- Row 9 = Knit across
- Row 10 = *YO, YO, SSK, K2tog*
- Row 11 = *K, P, K2*
- Row 12 = Purl
- Row 13 = Knit
- Row 14 = *SSK, K2tog, YO, YO*
- Row 15 = *K3, P*
- Row 16 = Purl across
- Row 17 = Knit across
- Row 18 = Purl across
- Row 19 = Knit across
- Row 20 = *YO, K2tog*
- Row 21 = Knit across
- Row 22 = Purl across
- Row 23 = Knit across
- Row 24 = *SSK, K2tog, YO, YO*
- Row 25 = *K3, P*
- Row 26 = Purl across
- Row 27 = Knit across
- Row 28 = *YO, YO, SSK, K2tog*
- Row 29 = *K, P, K2*
- Row 30 = Purl across
- Row 31 = Knit across
- Row 32 = Purl across
- Row 33 = Knit across
- Row 34 = *YO, K2tog*
- Row 35 = Knit across
- Row 36 = Purl across
- Row 37 = Knit across
- Row 38 = Purl across
- Row 39 = Knit across
Bind off using a slightly stretchy bind off. Cut your yarn leaving an 8-12 inch tail. Weave in your ends with a tapestry needle. I hope you enjoy your project! Told ya it was simple :)
