Elspeth Shawl

Lion Brand Jiffy®

GAUGE:

12 sts + 6 rows = 6 in. [15.25 cm] in pattern. 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.

Elspeth Shawl Reviewed by Christine Ellis on 2011-07-17 ****
This was easy to make, and the shawl turned out so beautiful! Thinking about making another one. i found the directions to be a bit confusing at first, until I realized that the first stitch of each row, is not the stitch at the base of the turning chain, but actually the next stitch in. After that, I had no problems with the pattern and my stitch counts for each row were accurate.
