Zeros are Something
Introducing an intricate and beautiful knitting pattern called "Zero's," designed to captivate knitters of all skill levels with its use of double and triple yarn overs. This stunning wrap features a taper at each end (with optional tassels) and showcases an engaging body pattern that includes three repeats of an eyelet circle, where the centerpiece is a zero created from two yarn overs. As you progress, you’ll transition to a detailed pointed edge pattern that features a different eyelet design, with the zero center ingeniously crafted using three yarn overs.
This pattern is not only a joy to create but also offers a satisfying challenge that will keep your hands busy while producing a splendid finished piece. Knit seamlessly in one piece, the pattern includes a repetitive sequence of 48 rows, allowing the length of the shawl to be easily adjusted to your preference. To complete this stunning wrap, you will require #7 (4.5 mm) knitting needles, three skeins of Cascade Longwood Sport yarn (totaling 800 yards), and two markers.
Blocking is a critical step in bringing your design to life and achieving the desired finish. After wet blocking, you'll pin the wrap to stretch it to its relaxed final dimensions of 17 inches by 83 inches, not including the optional tassels. For those interested in adding a special touch, a tutorial on creating tassels is available on my blog, with the address conveniently listed in the pattern. Dive into this captivating project and create a piece that is sure to impress, merging technique and beauty in every stitch.
