Running front shell 309
Discover the unique charm of our close-fitting knitted design, perfect for showcasing your creativity with yarn. This versatile pattern can be worked using either 2 strands held together of sport weight yarn or a single strand of thick aran or chunky weight yarn. Whether you're an experienced knitter or just starting, this project will captivate your imagination!
You will need approximately 375 (432, 514, 580, 672) meters / 410 (472, 562, 634, 735) yards of yarn for each size when using the combined strands or as the total of a single strand of chunky yarn. This feature makes it easy to customize the project to your desired thickness and texture, allowing you to create a truly unique piece.
Embrace the art of knitting by intentionally letting your stitches run down the front of your creation! For this pattern, I used double-stranded sport weight yarn, but feel free to mix and match two different sport weight yarns for added fun and visual interest! The stitches are securely anchored on either side of the "run" with a combination of increases and decreases, ensuring that your design remains stylish yet not as see-through as you might expect.
Tension Gauge: Achieve 16 stitches and 20 rows for a perfect 10 cm / 4 inches over stockinette stitch (St st). This crucial information helps you to maintain consistency throughout your project, ensuring a beautiful finished piece.
