Pennant

Description

Pennant is a long, slender triangle with multiple keyholes, and can be worn in several ways. Drape it around your shoulders as a light wrap or go twice around your neck for a cozy scarf. It is completely reversible.

Construction begins at the point and gradually increases, so it is easily modified to the length that’s perfect for you. An I-cord edging is worked on both sides as you go for a finished look. Once you get past the few minutes of the set-up, it is very mindless until you reach the keyholes.

The sample was knit in a merino/silk/linen blend that is great for warming your shoulders on cool summer evenings.

If you need to resize or want to work with a different weight/gauge, you can just start your keyholes sooner or later and end up with a length that works for you. (Any changes may result in meterage differences.) The number of keyholes can be changed as well if desired. My testers found it to be a great stash-buster for using up leftovers! Ends are easily hidden in the I-cord edges.

Finished measurements: approximately 152.5 cm long and 45.5 cm wide at widest point

Gauge: 20 stitches and 32 rows to 10 cm of lightly blocked garter stitch

Note: Though conversions to the metric system have been made on this page for your convenience, the pattern itself uses American measurements.
