Mininata (PDF)

For the tenth anniversary of Maschenfein, the Maschenfein classic Hinata is available as a small scarf version! Thanks to a modified algorithm in the increases, Mininata has significantly less depth than its big sister. With the new pattern, the huge cozy shawl becomes a small companion for every occasion. In the familiar Hinata pattern, triangles of slip stitches alternate with triangles knitted in garter stitch. This not only changes the direction of the stripes, but also the stitch density, which gives the design its special look.

The gauge is a recommendation at this point. The shawl can also be worked with a different gauge. The result will then be correspondingly smaller or larger. However, you must then take into account the yarn consumption, which differs from the specifications.
