Learn German Short Rows: Hera Shawl
German short rows are a neat and easy alternative to the traditional wrap & turn method of short rows. What are short rows, you ask? They can be useful for shaping and are commonly used on the back necklines of sweaters for improved fit. Another common use (the one we will be doing) is to give your knitted fabric a cool wave-like look.
