Product Details
This garter stitch shawl is knit sideways and features an unusual tentacular edging of openwork, and optional beads. Venomous recalls Harry Potter’s Venomous Tentacula, a green, spikey plant with mobile vines that grab living prey, aggressive shoots that expel venom, and a poisonous bite. The sideways edging is made by repeatedly binding off and casting on stitches, creating a pattern of holes. Any yarn and any amount may be used; see Designer’s Notes to ensure a symmetrical shawl and to prevent running out of yarn.
Techniques Used: knit, increasing/decreasing, cable CO, backwards loop CO, beading (crochet hook method).
Size: 50” wingspan and 20” depth; tentacular edging is approximately 6” deep, customizable.
Other Materials: US 6 (4mm) 24” circular needles, or size to match gauge; Stitch marker (1); Size 1.15mm crochet hook, for placing beads, optional; 120 size 6/0 seed beads, optional; Yarn needle.
Gauge: 24 st and 28 rows/4” in garter stitch, after blocking.
