Zagless
Introducing the Zagless knitting pattern: an innovative and delightful way to create a stunning accessory that combines style and warmth. This pattern is worked from side to side using a clever slip stitch technique, resulting in a unique optical illusion that captivates the eye. With a simple combination of stitches, Zagless cleverly alternates between zigging and moving in a straight line—without ever zagging. It’s a fun project that is perfect for knitters looking for an engaging challenge!
This beautiful piece is crafted using larger-than-normal needles, which helps enhance the fabric's drape and warmth. Made with the ultra-soft Anzula Squishy yarn, composed of 80% superwash merino wool, 10% cashmere, and 10% polyamide, the fabric is not only luxurious but also incredibly snuggly. It can be worn draped elegantly or wrapped snugly around your neck, providing maximum comfort and style during colder months.
Finished dimensions for the Zagless pattern measure an impressive 19" deep and 52" long, making it a versatile accessory that complements various outfits. For this project, you will need one skein of Anzula Squishy in Aspen (Main Color - MC) and Prudence (Contrast Color - CC). A circular needle size 7 (4.5 mm) with a 36" length is recommended, although you should adjust your needle size as necessary to achieve the correct gauge. Remember, achieving the gauge of 19 stitches and 20 rows per 4" in stockinette stitch is crucial for the final look of your project.
As for the pattern format, the instructions available in the ebook are charted only. However, if you choose to purchase the pattern as a standalone item, you will receive both fully written and fully charted instructions, catering to your preferred knitting style.
This project is ideal for knitters of all skill levels who want to create a fashionable and cozy accessory. Dive into the world of texture and form with the Zagless pattern, and enjoy the process of knitting something truly special!
