Construction:

The Dew Scarf is knit sideways, worked from tip to tip with selvage edge. It’s made with lace
weight mohair and knitted with larger needles to create an airy lace texture. When wearing it, I
used a ring or necklace to secure the scarf. Easy styling tips: https://youtu.be/BwJbKUKfqwE

Gauge:

14 sts and 19 rows = 10 x 10 cm / 4 x 4” in pattern.

Finished measurements:

The size of the finished piece depends on how many rows you work in each section. If you’d
like a wider piece, add more rows to Section 1. If you’d prefer it longer, simply work more rows
in Section 2.

Here are the measurements from my samples for reference:

Caramel triangle version: Length: 108 cm/42.5”; Width: 35 cm/13.75”

Light blue triangle version: Length: 85 cm/33.5”; Width: 21 cm/8.25”

Light blue rectangular version: Length: 106 cm/41.75”; Width: 8 cm/3.25”

Yarns:

Majo Garn, Peal Mohair. Color way: Almond/Mist. 70% Mohair, 30% Silk, 23g=210m/229yds.

The caramel version used one ball of yarn, the light blue versions each used about half a ball
of yarn. According to the pattern, you can repeat the pattern a few more times to make it
larger, but please note that this will require more yarn. On the other hand, if you prefer a
shorter length, simply reduce the number of repeats.

Note: The “k2tog-yo-k2tog” stitch increases two stitches to three, and with the preceding yo,
there are four stitches in total. In the following row, these four stitches are reduced to two by
working two p2tog stitches. Due to the unique structure of the k2tog-yo-k2tog stitch, the
increased stitch count will decrease back to the original count in the next row. Therefore, I
suggest counting the TS in the even-number rows.

Tips: While knitting, please keep the edge sts (the first and last 3 sts) loose and relaxed and
avoid working them too tightly. This will help the shape set more easily during blocking.

Finishing

Weave in ends and wet block to measurements.

When blocking the triangular shawl, start by stretching the longest edge as much as possible
and pinning it straight. Then, gently pull and pin the opposite corner. After blocking, the edge
stitches will be in a tightened state, as shown in the photo.
