Toqu Tigu
Sizes: 1 (2, 3, 4, 5)(6, 7, 8, 9)
Finished chest (fullest point) circumference: 139 (144, 162.5, 167, 186)(190.5, 209, 213.5, 218.5)cm / 54¾ (56¾, 64, 65¾, 73¼)(75, 82¼, 84, 86)“
Finished hip circumference: 97 (101.5, 115, 118.5, 131.5)(136, 148.5, 152.5, 157.5)cm / 38¼ (40, 45¼, 46¾, 51¾)(53½, 58½, 60, 62)” - to be worn with 10cm / 4” negative ease up to 2.5cm / 1” positive ease
NOTE: Hip circumference should be used to select a size. If your hip circumference is significantly smaller than your chest circumference, choose the larger size within your hip range.
Gauge: 23 sts & 35 rows = 10cm / 4” over St st on 3.25mm / US 3 needles after blocking.
Needles: 3.25mm / US 3 circular needle, 100cm / 40” length
Spare 3.25mm / US 3 circular needle, 100cm / 40” length (for grafting centre front and back)
3.25mm / US D crochet hook
Always use a needle size that will result in the correct gauge after blocking.
Notions: 6 locking stitch markers, stitch holders or scrap yarn, tapestry needle
Notes: Dayspring is worked flat and sideways in two pieces. Each piece begins with a sleeve, then continues with the body worked in wedges created with short rows. The two pieces are then seamed at the center front and back with Kitchener Stitch or an optional visible seam. For simplicity, the first center wedge worked is referred to as the front and the second one as the back, but the front and back shaping is identical.
The pattern includes two versions: regular format and low-vision format. Color planning sheets are also provided to help you plan your colors and make combining colors easier for you.
