    About

    I wanted a long rectangular hand towel to go with some washcloths I knit for my friend's birthday last year, and made the following modifications to this wonderful pattern.

    Cast on multiple of 4 + 6 stitches.

    Mods:

    slip 1st stitch as if to purl with yarn in front, then bring yarn to the left around needle and start the row.

    modified rows and additions:
    Row 26, Knit
    Row27 Knit
    Row 28 Knit
    Row 29 Purl
    Row 30 Knit
    Row 31 Knit
    Rows 32-38 as written (seed stitch)
    Row 39 Knit
    Row 40 knit
    Row 41 Knit
    Row 42 Purl
    Row 43 Knit
    Row 44 Knit
    Row 45 Knit
    knit pattern as written to desired length (repeat rows 7, 8, 9, 10)

    Then knit rows 7, 8, and 9 only (rows 23, 24, 25 in pattern)

    Repeat rows 26-45 above

    4 repeats of pattern (rows 7, 8, 9, 10)
