Pattern, knit flat, back and forth:
CO 24 STS
Row 1 = Right/Front Side
Row 1: *P1, K3*
Row 2: K1 *P5, K1, P1, K1* P5, K1, P1,
Row 3: K2 *P1, K3* P1, K1
Row 4: P2, K1, P1, K1 *P5, K1, P1, K1* P3
Repeat rows 1-4 for 64”.
Lightly block it by misting it with water, patting “dry” with a towel and lay flat to dry.
It will take several hours to completely dry.
Sew CO & BO edge together.
Modification option:
The sides curl a bit, so you could add a few stitches to create a border on each side.
