I’ve finished the body of the shawl, and have 300 stitches on my needles, as instructed. Now I’m ready to start the final edge.
Here’s the next pattern instructions:
CO 5 Stitches
K 6 (You will only work over the stitches in the chart - 1 st will be decreased every even row)
Row 1: SS, k, yo, (k2tog), yo, k2
What I don’t get, is why the parentheses around k2tog? If anyone has pulled this free pattern up on Cascade Yarns, does the Lace Edge chart give any clues?
Any help is appreciated!
