Bauhin

• Product description

  This airy wrap is knit with shifting panels of mesh lace and stamped with arrowheads of garter stitch to thoroughly modern effect. Worked from one end to the other, Bauhin begins with just a few stitches and becomes a parallelogram through increases and decreases. The tapered ends are easy to toss jauntily over your shoulders for casual elegance. Knit in Plains or Vale, Bauhin is a feather-light accessory that will add panache to simple outfits in any season.

After working even for a certain length, stitches are decreased every other row (on the opposite side from where the increases were worked), before being fastened off.
