_Illustrated on opposite page_

MATERIALS: =2 ply BEEHIVE FINGERING=. 6 ozs. White. Two No. 7
Beehive Knitting Needles.

MEASUREMENTS: Approx. 40 ins. × 40 ins.

Tension: 7 sts. and 8 rows = 1 inch.

THE CENTRE: Cast on 3 sts. =1st row:= W.r.n. Knit to end of row. Repeat first row until there are 64 loops up each side of work. =Next row:= W.r.n. K3tog. Knit to end of row. Repeat last row to 3 sts. Cast off.

_The shawl may be made larger by repeating the first row as given for centre until extra loops, divisible by 16, are obtained at each side. Then for every extra 16 loops there will be one more pattern in the border at each side of the shawl._

THE BORDER: With right side of work facing, pick up and knit the loops from one side. =Next row:= W.r.n. Knit to end of row. Proceed:-

=1st row:= W.r.n. K1. *K5. (Wl. fwd. Sl. 1. K1. p.s.s.o.) 3 times. K5. Repeat from * to end of row.

=2nd and alternate rows:= W.r.n. Knit to end of row.

=3rd row:= W.r.n. K3. *K2. K2tog. Wl. fwd. K1. (Wl. fwd. Sl. 1. K1. p.s.s.o.) 3 times. K5. Repeat from * to end of row.

=5th row:= W.r.n. K5. *(K2tog. Wl. fwd.) twice. K1. (Wl. fwd. Sl. 1. K1. p.s.s.o.) 3 times. K5. Repeat from * to end of row.

=7th row:= W.r.n. K5. *(K2tog. Wl. fwd.) 3 times. K1. (Wl. fwd. Sl. 1. K1. p.s.s.o.) 3 times. K3. Repeat from * to last 2 sts. K2.

=9th row:= W.r.n. K5. *(K2tog. Wl. fwd.) 3 times. K3. (Wl. fwd. Sl. 1. K1. p.s.s.o.) 3 times. K1. Repeat from * to last 4 sts. K4.

=11th row:= W.r.n. K5. K2tog. *Wl. fwd. (K2tog. Wl. fwd.) twice. K5. (Wl. fwd. Sl. 1. K1. p.s.s.o.) twice. Wl. fwd. Sl. 1. K2tog. p.s.s.o. Repeat from * to last 20 sts. Wl. fwd. (K2tog. Wl. fwd.) twice. K5. (Wl. fwd. Sl. 1. K1. p.s.s.o.) 3 times. K5.

=13th row:= W.r.n. K5. K2tog. *Wl. fwd. (K2tog. Wl. fwd.) twice. K7. Wl. fwd. Sl. 1. K1. p.s.s.o. Wl. fwd. Sl. 1. K2tog. p.s.s.o. Repeat from * to last 6 sts. Wl. fwd. K6.

=15th row:= W.r.n. K5. K2tog. *Wl. fwd. (K2tog. Wl. fwd.) twice. K9. Wl. fwd. Sl. 1. K2tog. p.s.s.o. Repeat from * to last 8 sts. Wl. fwd. K2tog. Wl. fwd. K6.

=16th row:= W.r.n. Knit to end of row.

Repeat these 16 rows 3 times. Then 1st. to 15th row once. =16th row:= K144 sts. Cast on 23 sts. (these 23 sts. form beginning of Peak).

THE PEAK: K23. Turn. Proceed:

=1st row:= Sl. 1. K2. Wl. fwd. K2tog. K1. Wl. fwd. K2tog. K2. (Wl. fwd. K2tog.) twice. K5. Wl. fwd. K2tog. Wl. fwd. K2.

=2nd row:= K18. Wl. fwd. K2tog. K1. Wl. fwd. (K2tog.) twice. Turn. (The last 2 sts. knit together are 1. st. from the peak and 1. st. from the shawl, thus attaching the peak to the shawl. The peak is attached in this manner every alternate row as instructed).

=3rd row:= Sl. 1. K2. Wl. fwd. K2tog. K1. Wl. fwd. K2tog. K3. (Wl. fwd. K2tog.) twice. K5. Wl. fwd. K2tog. Wl. fwd. K2.

=4th row:= K19. Wl. fwd. K2tog. K1. Wl. fwd. (K2tog.) twice. Turn.

=6th row:= K20. Wl. fwd. K2tog. K1. Wl. fwd. (K2tog.) twice. Turn.

=7th row:= Sl. 1. K2. Wl. fwd. K2tog. K1. Wl. fwd. K2tog. K5. (Wl. fwd. K2tog.) twice. K5. Wl. fwd. K2tog. Wl. fwd. K2.

=8th row:= K21. Wl. fwd. K2tog. K1. Wl. fwd. (K2tog.) twice. Turn.

=9th row:= Sl. 1. K2. Wl. fwd. K2tog. K1. Wl. fwd. K2tog. K6. (Wl. fwd. K2tog.) twice. K5. Wl. fwd. K2tog. Wl. fwd. K2.

=10th row:= K22. Wl. fwd. K2tog. K1. Wl. fwd. (K2tog.) twice. Turn.

=11th row:= Sl. 1. K2. Wl. fwd. K2tog. K1. Wl. fwd. K2tog. K7. (Wl. fwd. K2tog.) twice. K5. Wl. fwd. K2tog. Wl. fwd. K2.
