Product Details

Art Deco-inspired fans can be reminiscent of water arcing out of fountains. A slight redesign of the fans seen in Deco Fans Hat & Cowl has given the fans a more graceful shape, and these worked in a combination of Aguas (water) and Piedras (stones) brought to mind Ottorino Respighi’s The Fountains of Rome, a symphonic poem dedicated to the lovely fountains that grace that Italian city.

This pattern combines several of my favorite techniques: garter stripes and two-color slipped-stitch cabling, all wrapped up in an asymmetrical, bias-knit shape. I hope you love knitting it as much as I did.

SIZES  One size, measuring approximately 53” (135 cm) wingspan and 14” (36 cm) deep at widest point.

MATERIALS  Approximately 310 yds (284 m) main color (MC) and 310 yds (284 m) contrasting (CC) of DK-weight yarn

GAUGE  20 sts x 32 rows in 4” (10 cm) in blocked garter st  Gauge is not critical but will affect yarn usage.
