Pemberly Tam
Lion Brand® LB Collection® Superwash Merino - LB Collection® Cashmere
GAUGE: 20 sts + 27 rnds = 4 in. (10 cm) in St st worked in the rnd (k every rnd). BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.
STITCH EXPLANATION: kfb (knit into front and back) Knit next st without removing it from left needle, then k through back of same st – 1 st increased.
sk2p Slip 1 as if to knit, knit 2 together, pass slipped stitch over – 2 sts decreased.
To work last sk2p in a rnd, slip last 2 sts of rnd, k first st of the next rnd, pass both slipped stitches over.
ssk (slip, slip, knit) Slip next 2 sts as if to knit, one at a time, to right needle; insert left needle into fronts of these 2 sts and knit them together.
|
NOTES: 1. Carry color not in use across wrong side of work.
2. Tam is worked in the round, so every rnd of Chart 1 and Chart 2 should be read from right to left.
3. Decreases for top of Tam (crown) are worked following Chart 2.

| Lovely tam.. However problems with Chart 2 colors and instructions. Questions were promptly answered because "this is confusing". Adjustments/corrections needed.
