I used Cascade Revive (100% Recycled Wool) and a US#8 (5.0 mm) needle.

The stitch pattern worked up nicely on my needles! I found myself looking forward to those decreases that removed TWO stitches.

The decreases on the right and left edges did make it wave a bit. That’s perfect for a shawl or cowl, but it might be trickier on a garment (I might try some increases to battle that…this is where a swatch is crucial).
The bottom and top waves would also need to be deliberate.

I’m the knitting-obsessed, crochet-loving, math-geeky, web-dev girl behind Knotions. I’m passionate about helping crafters become even better at what they love, whether that means understanding why a stitch works a certain way or discovering their next favorite yarn.
Crafting runs deep in my roots—my mom was an avid embroiderer and sewist, and she sparked my lifelong love of all things crafty. Since those early days, I’ve combined my degrees in Math and Computer Science with over two decades of experience in digital marketing to build Knotions into a place that’s both fun and informative.
My mission at Knotions is simple: to empower crafters to craft smarter. Let’s make something awesome together!
