2013 Mystery Knit Along

Cables and Lace Knitted Shawl @ 2013 by N Banks

2013 Mystery Knit Along

This is my Cable and Lace Shawl I did as a mystery knit along in 2013 on my yahoo knitting and crochet list, it's about six foot long and about 2 1/2 feet wide. It has cables, lace, and yarn overs, not hard to do, but not for beginners.

Materials needed:

1 ½ balls Caron one pound in color of your choice.  But I would use a light color so that the stitches will show up.

10 stitch markers,   row counter,   size 10 1/2 knitting needles, u shaped cable needle.

Notes:

SM = slip markers, and place the markers as you see the sm.  

SSK = slip one st knit wise, slip another st knit wise, then with left hand needle, insert in front loops of both stitches and knit

Even rows are the back

Cast on 93
