02 Horseshoe lace knit scarf

This pattern is commonly used in Shetland lace designs

(It is a multiple of 10 stitches + 2)

Here are images of the scarf which I made:



Key:
k = knit
p = purl
WS = wrong side
slip 1 = slip one stitch from left to right needle
k2 tog = knit 2 stitches together
psso = pass slipped stitch over
yo = yarn over
rep from * to * = Repeat pattern between the asterisks

Cast on 52 stitches (to get 5 pattern repeats)
Begin the Border pattern (4 repeats, ie 8 rows in all)

Border pattern - : (in Seed stitch)
Row 1: k
Row 2: *k1, p1*, rep from * to * until end of row

Horseshoe pattern:
Row 1 (WS): p
Row 2: k1 * yo, k3, slip1-k2tog-psso, k3, yo, k1*, rep from * to * end k1
Row 3: p
Row 4: k1 *k1, yo, k2, slip1-k2tog-psso, k2, yo, k2*, rep from * to * end k1
Row 5: p
Row 6: k1 *k2, yo, k1, slip1-k2tog-psso, k1, yo, k3* rep from * to * end k1
Row 7: p
Row 8: k1 *k3, yo, slip1-k2tog-psso, yo, k4* rep from * to * end k1

Once the scarf is the required length, repeat the border pattern 4 times (8 rows in all)
Cast off.
