NEEDLES: 

SKILL LEVEL:

• Click the Videos tab to learn how how to work the picot cast on and bind off, how to change colors, and how to knit the starting and finishing rows.
• Shukrani is a Japanese stitch, lace shawl that is knitted flat in one piece and features a picot cast on, as well as a picot bind off. The body of the shawl is constructed by repeating a 28-row sequence. The shawl is designed to be knitted with three complementary colors that will blend well with each other to create a gradient from beginning to end.
• The shawl features a symmetrical design that proceeds as follows: picot cast on in C1, setup rows in C1, repeating shawl pattern in C1, transitional section in C1 and C2, repeating shawl pattern in C2, transitional section in C2 and C3, repeating shawl pattern in C3, transitional section in C3 and C2, repeating shawl pattern in C2, transitional section in C2 and C1, repeating shawl pattern in C1, finishing rows in C1, and picot bind off in C1.
• The two main stitch patterns included in this shawl are modifications of two designs that were originally published in Hitomi Shida’s Japanese Knitting Stitch Bible: 260 Exquisite Patterns.
• Throughout the shawl, you’ll work with two colors of yarn at the same time. You can carry your nonworking yarn up the side until you’re instructed to break the yarn.
• At the end of the pattern, you’ll find a chart for the Setup rows, the 28-row Repeating Shawl Pattern sequence, and the Finishing rows.
• Finally, be sure to check your gauge against mine to ensure that you have enough yarn to complete the pattern.
