K all rows. 1 ridge = 2 rows K.
PATTERN:
See diagrams A.1-A.19. The diagrams show all rows in pattern seen from RS.
SHAPING:
When using another yarn then Lace from yarn group A, there is no need to stretch to measurements, but place it gently out in shape. Leave to dry. Repeat the process when the garment has been washed.

SHAWL:
The shawl is worked back and forth on circular needle from the neck to make room for all the sts. Cast on 5 sts on circular needle size 3.5 mm with Lace and work 2 ridges in GARTER ST - see explanation above. Work in garter st and inc as follows: K 1, 1 YO, K 1, 1 YO, K 1 (= mid st), 1 YO, K 1, 1 YO and K 1 = 9 sts. K, K YOs to make holes.
Continue in garter st and inc with 1 YO inside 3 edge sts in each side and 1 YO on each side of mid st = 4 sts inc on every row from RS. Inc like this until there are 49 sts on needle (i.e. there are 24 sts on each side of mid st).
Work according to diagram A.1-A.6 as follows: 3 edge sts in garter st, A.1 over 2 sts, repeat A.2 until 3 sts remain before mid st, A.3 over 3 sts, K 1 (= mid st), A.4 over 3 sts, A.5 until 5 sts remain, A.6 over 2 sts and 3 edge sts in garter st. Work mid st in stocking st and edge sts in garter st. When A.1-A.6 have been worked 1 time vertically there is room for 2 repetitions more of A.2/A.5 on each side of shawl. When diagram A.1-A.6 has been worked 8 times in total vertically, there are 305 sts on needle (i.e. 152 sts on each side of mid st).
Work according to diagram A.7-A.12 as follows: 3 edge sts in garter st, A.7 over 2 sts, repeat A.8 until 3 sts remain before mid st, A.9 over 3 sts, K 1 (= mid st), A.10 over 3 sts, repeat A.11 until 5 sts remain, A.12 over 2 sts and 3 edge sts in garter st. When diagram A.7-A.12 have been worked 1 time vertically, there are 359 sts on needle (i.e. 179 sts on each side of mid st).
Work according to diagram A.13-A.19 as follows: 3 edge sts in garter st, A.13 over 4 sts, repeat A.14 until 4 sts remain before mid st, A.15 over 1 st, A.16 over 7 sts (= mid st is in the middle of these sts), A.17 over 1 st, repeat A.18 until 7 sts remain, A.19 over 4 sts and 3 edge sts in garter st.
When diagrams have been worked 1 time vertically, loosely cast off. NOTE! Work double YOs on last row in diagram as follows when casting off: K 1st YO, K 2nd YO twisted.
BLOCKING:
Place the shawl in lukewarm water until it is soaking wet. Carefully squeeze the water out of the shawl - do not twist the shawl - then roll the shawl in a towel and squeeze to remove more water - the shawl will now only be moist. When using Alpaca – READ SHAPING!
Place the shawl on a carpet or mattress - carefully stretch it out to size and fasten it with pins, pull the middle of lace repetitions in A.13-A.19 out to form tips. Leave to dry. Repeat the process when the shawl has been washed.
