It's taken awhile for me to get this swatch posted. I was struggling with the chart and finally just gave up and created an illustration instead.


Also I tried knitting the swatch several times with fingering weight yarn and it just didn't work. So I have knitted the swatch in worsted weight yarn. The title says it is suitable for shawls, stripes, spreads, afghans, etc. but I wouldn't want an afghan or spread out of this stitch pattern — too many holes. I think it would make a lovely scarf out of worsted or maybe even bulky weight. You can find the pattern on my website.
One final note: When passing the stitches over, be careful not to twist.
