The Weekly Swatch: Garland Lace Knit Stitch

 

With the Garland Lace Knit Stitch I am returning to simple, traditional lace in this instalment of the weekly swatch. 

The Garland Knit Stitch is a simple beginner lace knit stitch. The motif is created over sixteen rows, requires a multiple of 6 plus 1 stitches and all wrong side rows are purled throughout.
