This pattern makes very wide, sideways fans on an openwork background, with triangles on the bottom edge, and a gartered border at the top. The original calls for size 1 needles. The stitch count changes throughout, as noted. They don't make 'em like this any more. Go Here to see Donna Hrynkiw's knitted swatch of this pattern.
