I have recently become fascinated with the contrast between the density of cables and the openness of fagot lace. Following on from my initial two cable and lace scarves I wanted to explore this interaction further and shawls are the perfect canvas to showcase these on a larger scale.

Senary is the second of a planned mini series of shawls. Alternating columns of simple cables and open fagot lace grow as three triangles that make up this trapezoid shaped shawl. Six new columns are created for each pattern repeat, hence the name.

The pattern is both charted (using StitchMastery) and written, is intuitive once you get going and easy to memorize which makes this a surprisingly fast but interesting knit.

The featured samples are approximately 68” wide x 26” deep, working 10 pattern repeats. The lower yardage given is enough for 9 repeats. The shawl can be extended indefinitely - information is included to let you determine how much yarn you will need to work extra repeats.

Achieving gauge is not essential - it has been tested using a variety of yarns - but will affect the yardage required and finished size.

Stitches used: garter tab, knit and purl M1 left and right, yo, ssk, p2tog, cable back and cable front
