these are sooo pretty... they are knit out of noro kureyon i designed them myself... and its a easy eyelet design forming the diagonals.... so yeah on to the pics...
and a close up of the eyelet pattern and ribbing stitches
so what doyou all think?
EDITED TO ADD PATTERN
i got the lace pattern from a wonderful book called99 knit stitches
this is my try at a pattern...
using noro kureyon (worsted weight yarn)
on a set of 4 dpns 4.5mm (7us)
cast on 32 stitches total
cast on 11 stitches on the first needle, 10 on second, and 11 on third
k1,p2,k2,p2,k2,p2 first needle
k2,p2,k2,p2,k2 second
p2,k2,p2,k2,p2,k1 third
this makes for a nice thumbhole (optional)
continue this ribbing for 8 rows
(to work thumbhole) continue ribbing (alternating knits and purls) but instead of knitting in roung just knit like its on 2 needles, back and forth GOT ME SO FAR?
continue like this for 9 rows (for no thumbholes just continue in round for those 9 rows)
continue the ribbing in the round for 6 more rows after joining in round again
continue ribbing pattern on needles 1 and 3 for needle 2 just do stockingknit
do 2 rows like this
start lace pattern
(it uses 9 stitches so put extra stitch at opposite side as the thumb hole GOT ME?)
