Vostok

Errata: Initial versions of the pattern listed the stitch count at the end of Row 6 as 26. The correct count is 29. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Vostok is an ethereally lacy half-pi shawl designed especially to showcase Dream in Color’s March 2012 Dream Club offering. The shawl features several, distinctive and delicate motifs and a wide, knitted-on border that eliminates the need to bind off hundreds of stitches along the bottom edge. Beginning with a garter tab cast-on of just a few stitches, Vostok is worked from the top down and reaches a finished size, after blocking, of 60 inches wide by 24 inches deep, which allows it either to drape elegantly across the shoulders or to wrap, scarf or kerchief-like around the neck. Vostok's lace sections are primarily charted, and have lace worked on both the right side and the wrong side of the shawl. **Uses 1100 yards of lace weight yarn.
