Clapotis Wannabe
I really wanted a Clapotis but every time I tried to do it, I lost my place and had to frog it....again and again....
Oh how I longed to have one, though....so I decided to fake it!
This project is bias knit.
I'm using US7 Harmony Woods Circulars. Gauge is not critical. It's a lark...fake it til you make it. Knit the gauge that pleases you!
This yarn is Blue Heron Yarns Rayon Metallic in Deep Blue Sea/Silver
Here you are, my Clapotis Wannabe:
CO 4
K4
Rows
1-7: K1, YO, Knit across for 7 rows
8: Yo, K1, Yo, K1 for the entire row
Row 9 Knit across dropping every YO (this creates the 'effect' of the dropped stitch....approximately ;) )
10-16: K1, YO, Knit across for 7 rows
17: Yo, K1, Yo, K1 for the entire row
Row 19 Knit across dropping every YO (this creates the 'effect' of the dropped stitch....approximately ;) )
Knit across the next row with no increase
Repeat
(more later...I'm still working out this pattern for the width after the increase.)
