Gothic Flamingo

Gothic Flamingo is a shallow, triangle scarf, knit sideways. This design features lace patterning, worked at the same time as the body of the shawl. While the sample shown is worked in an aran weight yarn, the design is wonderfully suited to be worked in other yarn weights. The pattern contains both fully written out and charted instructions for the lace. The lace in the border of the shawl is true lace knitting, worked on both wrong and right side rows. **Difficulty level** The lace in this pattern is worked on both RS and WS rows. Stitches used include knit, purl, yo, kfb, skp, k2tog, p2tog, the sl1-k2tog-psso left-leaning double decrease and the M5 or (k1, p1, k1, p1, k1) in 1 stitch increase. This pattern is therefor suitable for the intermediate to advanced knitter. **Yarn** 493 m (465 yds) / 275 g RMR Yarn Co. Gloria aran (85% Merino, 15% Nylon; 179 m (196 yds) / 100 g) in the color “El Barney”. Substitute a plied aran weight yarn in a solid or tonal colorway for a similar result.
