Edge lace 2.3

Picture 1.

Introduction
A zigzag edge lace (edge lace 2) stitch motif is combined with the little flower like motif.

Description and tips


Chart includes odd rows only. The edge and repetitive middle part of the motif are separated
by the empty space. Numbers on the right side of the charts indicate row number. Edge
stitches are not included.

For stitches of even rows there are two possibilities:


- purl all stitches and you will get stockinette based lace texture as on the Picture 1
or
- knit all stitches and you will get garter stitch based lace texture as it is traditionally
done for Haapsalu shawl borders.

Chart 1 requires the following amount of stitches: 15 stitches (edges of the motif) + 14
stitches ⋅X times (repeated middle part of the motif) + 2 (or more ) edge stitches (if
necessary).

Cast on stitches using knitted on method and double yarn with needles at least 0.5 - 1 size
larger than you will be using for the edge lace knitting.

Knit all rows from the Chart 1.
