This was the 2nd afghan pattern posted by Jan Metzger and is worked up in much the same way as far as yarns and needle size. Okay guys...if you want a break...here is another pattern on #19's; thought about doing it on #35's just to drive you crazy... but? Materials: five, six or seven yarns, just as for the "other one". A circular #19 yes, Virginia...there is a #19... Now...every row is exactly the same. Cast on 70, 80, or 90 sts. according to how many yarns you have. Now: Knit 10 sts. (garter); purl 1, (YO, P2 tog.) six times; Knit 10, P1 (YO, P2 tog) six times; Knit 8, P1 (YO, P2 tog six times; knit 10, P 1. (YO, P2 tog.) six times; Knit 10. Work even in pattern until it is the length you desire. Bind off LOOSELY!!! Fringe heavily...Now? I usually use 100 sts. with this but it does make it quite wide ... I haven't figured out the repeat on this so check it to make sure it fits in the lesser number of stitches. You could cut out a couple on each end of the 10 sts. or cut out one repeat...or cut out one repeat in each YO P2 tog. group... in other words... make the thing work by cheating as needed. ENJOY!!!!!
