Vaike - ENGLISH

Lovely shawl with cables

OBS! Pattern in ENGLISH! 

Vaike is worked from the narrow point of the left edge. Stitches are increased every RS row in the cable pattern and then onward into the Stockinette stitch section. A cute 3 x 1 ribbing is worked last. The combination of cables, stockinette and ribbing give this shawl a sophisticated yet casual look.

Needles
US 3 (3.25 mm) circular needle, 40" (100 cm) long for ribbing
US 5 (3.75 mm) circular needle, 40" (100 cm) long or size needed to get gauge.
Gauge
22.5 sts x 30 rows = 4" (10 cm) in cable pattern after blocking.
18 sts x 30 rows = 4" (10 cm) in Stockinette stitch after blocking.
Gauge is not crucial for this project but will affect yardage and final size when different.
Finished measurements
80" (203 cm) wingspan, 48.5" (123 cm) wide at full side of right edge.
