Edge is a
rectangular stole knit in wedges of three colors using simple short
rows. The middle is worked first and then the two borders are knit in
the round.
Skills needed: Long-tail cast on, Short rows
(directions included - this is a good first short-row project since you
don’t need to pick up the wraps.), Increasing with kfb and Picking up
stitches
Gauge is not critical but will affect yardage
required and finished size.
A note about gauge in garter stitch - garter gauge
is difficult to measure because it is so very stretchy. This makes it
difficult to get accurate yardage numbers. I’ve tried to give good
estimates with a reasonable bit of padding.
Yardage breakdown:
Madelientosh Tosh Merino Light
(100% merino, 420 yards)
For body - approximately 370 yards of color 1
(light grey in sample), 340 yards of colors 2 and 3.
For border - approximately 70 yards for inner
border and 265 yards for outer border.
Total by color:
Color 1 (light grey in sample) - 370
Color 2 (dark grey in sample) - 605
Color 3 (red in sample) - 410
If you’re trying to use some of those single skeins
in your stash, the outer border can be done in a 4th color.
Note: due to the large number of
edging
patterns in the database, you may need to include my name to get this
pattern to come up when using it in your projects or magic linking!
