Item# 112

Decorate a cloth doily with a dainty lace edging knitted of fine thread.

This expanded edition of the pattern includes tutorial sections for Crochet Provisional Cast On and Stockinette Kitchener Stitch Grafting in pdf format.

In its elemental form, lace is just holes arranged in a pleasing pattern. I think that what makes lace design so intriguing beyond just the holes is the texture that complements the lace. The slant of the compensating decreases, and other twists and turns of the stitches in the fabric create an extra dimension of interest. (The picture shown is from Kitty In Your Lap Towel.)

Themed tea towels for picture-perfect casual living. Designs, fiber content, and prices vary as given in the product selection drop-down. Approx 19" x 29".
