Pattern, Knit Flat {Back & Forth}:

CO 42 STS

Knit every row until you have enough to bind-off, with a little to spare.

I knit about 24 rows.

Bind-off loosely in all knit stitches.

Sew the side edges together, creating horizontal rows.

Weave in the ends.

Block, if desired.

Abbreviations:

* – * – repeat between *
BO – bind-off in pattern
