DAYBREAK GOLDSCast�on�2�stitches.�Row 1�(RS)�Knit.�Row 2�Yo,� knit� to�end.�Repeat� these�2� rows�152� times� more—155� stitches.� Next row�(RS)�Knit.�Next row�Yo,�k2tog,�knit�to� end.� Repeat� last� 2� rows� 10� times�more.�Next row�(RS)�Knit.�Next row�Yo,�[k2tog]�twice,�knit�to�end.�Repeat�last�2�rows�151�times�more—3�stitches.�Next row�(RS)�K3.�Next row�Yo,�k3tog.�Next row� K2tog.� Pull� up� loop,� bring� ball� of�yarn� through� loop,� then� tighten.� Do�not�cut�yarn.�

Ruffle With�WS�facing,�begin�at�end�away�from�yarn,�insert�needle�from�back�to�front�into�each�yo�eyelet�along�edge—317�stitches.�Turn�work.�Using�attached�yarn,�work�30�rows�of�Bell�Ruffle�Chart—52�bells.�

Picot bind-off row� (RS)� *�Knit� cast� on�2� stitches� onto� left� needle,� bind� off� 5�stitches,� return� stitches� to� left� needle;�repeat� from�*.�Pull�up� loop,�bring�ball�of�yarn� through� loop� and� tighten.� Do� not�cut�yarn.�

Top edging With�WS�facing,�begin�at�end�away�from�yarn,� insert� needle� from� back� to� front�into� edge� stitch� for� 13� stitches� along�edge� of� ruffle,� then� 317� stitches� along�body� (in� every� stitch� between� ridges)�and� 13� stitches� along� edge� of� ruffle—343� stitches.� With� attached� yarn,� knit�3� rows.� Next row:� K1,� *�[knit� into� front�and�back�of�next�stitch]�twice,�k1;�repeat�from�*.�Knit�2�rows.�Work�picot�bind-off.�Fasten�off.�Block�piece.�

A� yarn� over� worked� at� the� begin-ning� of� every� other� row� shapes the triangle�as�follows:�

1 Yo, k1�adds�one�stitch�to�the�row�(increase�portion�of�shawl)�

2 Yo, k2tog� makes� a� hole� with� no�change�in�stitch�count�(the�straight�portion�in�the�center�of�the�shawl�which� miraculously� turns� into� a�rounded� edge� when� the� ruffle� is�added—don’t�ask�me�why!)

3 Yo, k2tog, k2tog� removes� one�stitch� from� the� row;� the� first�

yo,� k2tog� makes� a� hole� with� no�change�in�count,�the�second�k2tog�eliminates� one� stitch� (decrease�portion�of�shawl)

And� the� triangle� can� be� as� big� as�you�like—just�extend�the�rows.�

The�ruffle�begins�with�a�5–1�ribbing�that�increases�into�a�bell�shape�by�add-ing�yarn�overs�at�the�beginning�and�end�of�the�5–stitch�rib�every�right-side�row.�

The� picot bind-off� is� my� favorite�for�shawls—it�impresses�other�knitters�and�is�not�difficult.

Lace Live with Jane Sowerby

La p r e s e n t s

Since the publication of Victorian Lace Today, Jane Sowerby has contin-ued to find irresistable yarns and new ways to use them. And she is here to help you take your first steps into lace—fine yarn, yarn overs, and knit-ting a side-to-side triangle. This fichu (a lovely, ruffled thing to wear around your shoulders) keeps it that simple.

Every knitter’s ‘must have’ acces-sory adds color to almost any outfit. The Victorians would have looked at the yarns and colors available to us with amazement and delight.

Working with fine yarn and nee-dles is just a matter of getting used to the feel of something more delicate. Once the concepts have been taken on board, you won’t need to depend on the pattern. Soon you’ll be knit-ting more lace and more fichus in other splendid yarns.
