BLUE SKIES II

**“Blue Skies”** is an asymmetric triangular shawl, featuring a reversible lace pattern of tiny cables. While this is a not-too-complicated project, it nevertheless requires patience and attention to detail. The stitch pattern, which is composed of knit and purl stitches, yarn overs, double yarn overs, as well as crossed stitches, is worked in every row, in right side as well as wrong side rows. The 17-page pattern contains detailed instructions, ample explanations about the construction, and a step-by step photo tutorial for the special bind-off method used, but *the stitch pattern itself is not written out row-by-row*. While the chart legend lists how to work each symbol used in the chart, and the detailed instructions explain how to read the chart, chart reading skills are required! For a medium-sized shawl, a total amount of approximately **400 m (437 yds)** of yarn is needed.
