Diagonal Chinese Waves Facecloth


 
Yarn and needles are up to you - as it's knit diagonally you stop increasing when it is large enough.

Pattern:
Cast on 4 sts. K2, yo knit to end
Repeat this row until you have 7 sts.

Next row: k2, yo, (k1, slip 1) repeat until you get to the last 3 sts - knit to end.

Next row: Knit

Repeat the last 2 rows until the side measures desired length. End with a knit row.

Begin decreases
Decrease row 1: k1, k2tog, yo, k2tog, (slip 1, k1) repeat until you get to the last 2 sts - knit to end.

Next row: Knit

Repeat the last 2 rows until 7 sts remain.

Then work as follows:
k1, k2tog, yo, k to end repeat this row until 5 st remain.

Cast off, but knit the 2nd and 3rd stitches together as you do.
