Each stage of the pattern includes intricate stitches that shape the leaves, flowers, and the gate of a walled garden with increases, decreases and gathers. The pattern is divided into 7 parts, slowly adding more skills and stitches as you practice each motif. The first stages create the image of vines, climbing a garden wall. at the top of the vines there are flowers, then we see our first bobbles appear in a chevron pattern. soon, the shape of the gate is visible, peeking through the leaves to reveal a striking geometric band of wrought iron bars. in the final stages, more flowers are created, finally ending with a cascade of large flowers. My favorite part of this design is how the asymmetrical construction looks when worn, with one corner very plain and 2 with lots of texture. **Pattern Stats** **Finished Size**: Adjustable size 64 (79)" / 162 (200) cm wide and 31.5 (42)" / 80 (107) deep triangle shape.
