HOKEI II Scarf & Shawl

HOKEI II has textured patterns with knit and purl stitches and i-cord selvedges. The pattern offers three versions: Version 1 has a simple square grid that is sufficient for dark yarn shades; version 2 has a double square grid which is particularly effective with medium and light yarn shades; the third version is even more textured with 4 nested squares, here we also recommend using medium or light yarn shades. HOKEI II is inspired by our HOKEI Scarf, but instead of colored intarsia squares, HOKEI II translates color into texture. Version 1 is suitable for beginners, version 2 & 3 for advanced beginners. The instructions are written out, the pattern repeat is also charted. Instructions are given for 3 sizes each pattern.
