Pattern
Set up your machine as follows:
Cast on 3
Stitch Pattern A
Stitch pattern 1070; Knitting technique 138
-59 sts left, +59 sts right (a total of 118 sts)
MT (main tension, otherwise known as stitch size) = 3
Cast on 118 sts at MT (I found the yarn breaks at a smaller st size for some reason. If you find it doesn’t break, cast on at MT – 2) Change to Stitch Pattern A after cast on is completed.
Work a further 1120 (1390) rows. Cast off.
Add a 15cm fringe to cast on and cast off ends and trim neatly.
