It's a very simple pattern with great texture. I have had problems finding stitches to use with finer yarns that have some body to them. Many lace stitches seem to blend all together and make it hard to really see the texture of the stitch. I was looking through a stitch book I have, The Encyclopedia of Knitting and Crochet Stitch Patterns published in 1976, for something new and came across this lace stitch.
I have used it on the cuff of some Fingerless Gloves with great results
I used Red Heart's Symphony yarn which is really soft, mohair like yarn.
100 % Acrylic
• Subtle melange of colors are gently brushed to create the look and feel of mohair at a great price!
• Lovely alone or mixed with other medium weight yarns.
• Soft, easy-care 100% acrylic yarn.
• 3.5 oz/100g/310 yd/283m ball.
• Machine wash/dry. Imported.
• Crochet gauge in single crochet, size J-10 (6mm) hook: 12 sc and 14 rows = 4" (10cm). Knit gauge in stockinette stitch, size 8 (5mm) needles: 19 sts and 24 rows = 4" (10cm).
Here's the Pattern:
K - knit
Yo - yarn over
Tog - stitch two together
P - purl
Use Even number of stitches
Row 1: K 1, *yo, p 2 tog, repeat from * across row, end k 1.
Repeat Row 1 for Pattern Stitch
So Simple !
