Essentially it&#8217;s the same two rows over and over, but they move over a little in each row. That said, there have been a few little mistakes, but they&#8217;re really easy to fudge if you need to, and you can&#8217;t be bothered ripping back.<br \/>\nHere&#8217;s a close up of the stitch pattern.<br \/>\n<center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.randomknits.net\/archives\/100_2041.html\" onclick=\"window.open('http:\/\/www.randomknits.net\/archives\/100_2041.html','popup','width=950,height=713,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.randomknits.net\/archives\/100_2041-thumb.jpg\" width=\"430\" height=\"322\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/center><br \/>\nI&#8217;m using Zephyr 50% silk, 50% merino which is my absolute favourite lace weight yarn.
