What does 1/1/1/RRC mean? I can’t find it in the instructions or the list of abbreviations. Thank you!
It’s called “3 st cable” in the instructions. And I didn’t realize 1/1/1 was missing so I’ll add that after the holiday!
can you provide the whole knitting pattern for this cowl?
I’m not sure what you mean – I just checked and the whole pattern is there. There isn’t much to the actual pattern – most of it is to follow the chart.
But let me know if you’re not getting it all and we’ll try to figure out what’s going on in your browser.
Thanks!
CHART IS UNREADABLE. LOVE THE PATTERN!!!!!
The chart is clickable. Do you still have the issue when you click on it?
