QUICK MOCK RIBBED ASCOT

Finished measurements: Approximately 5” x 36”

MATERIALS
Bulky weight wool (I used MODA DEA Tweedle Dee), approximately
100 yards
Knitting needles, size 11 (8 mm) or size needed to obtain gauge
1 ½” -2” Button

GAUGE: In pattern, 15 sts = 5”

BODY
Cast on 15 sts loosely.
Row 1: Slip 1 as if to knit, K1, purl across to last 2 sts, K2.
Row 2 (Right side): Slip 1 as if to knit, K2, P1, (K1, P1) across to last 3 sts,
K3.
Note: Mark Row 2 as right side.
Repeat Rows 1 and 2 until piece measures approximately 7 “ from cast on
edge, ending by working pattern Row 2.
Buttonhole Row: Slip 1 as if to knit, P4, P2 tog, YO twice (see Note
below), purl across to last 2 sts, K2.
Note: Double YO (YO twice) is used to make a larger buttonhole. When
working next row, work double YO as if it is only one YO, allowing extra
YO loop to drop off. If you are NOT using a button that is 1 ½ or 2” , just do
a single YO.
Beginning with pattern Row 2, repeat Rows 1 and 2 until piece measures
approximately 36” or desired length, ending by working pattern Row 1.
