Knitting Instructions for a Lace Pattern Garment

You’ll Need:

350 - 400g of 100% cotton yarn (105m/50g);

Knitting needles size 6.

Used Patterns

Lace pattern: The quantity of stitches is multiplied 16 + 3 + 2 selvedge stitches. Work according to the scheme.

In wrong-side rows make all the stitches and yarn overs as purls. Start with 1 selvedge stitch, pattern repeat, finish with stitch after pattern repeat, 1 selvedge stitch.

Stitches Control

After laddering: 14.5 stitches x 19.5 rows = 10 x 10 cm.

Instructions

Make 2 identical details.

Back/Front

Cast on 69 - 85 stitches and make 1 wrong-side row with purls. Don’t include this row in your calculations.

Continue work with lace pattern. In 132 rows (68 cm) from the bottom part, bind off the stitches. Loosen the stitches according to the scheme, cast on 4 new stitches instead of them. Bind off these 4 stitches.

Assembly

Sew up the shoulders from both sides at 12 - 16.5 cm. Leave the central 24 - 26 stitches for the neck-hole. Sew up the sides. Leave the upper 19 - 20 cm for arm-holes.
