Valentine Lace

Sample knit with my hand dyed Merino Worsted on US Size 8 needles

Cast on a multiple of 12 + 1

Row 1: k1 *yo, k2tog, k3, yo, k1, yo, k3, sl 1, k1, psso, yo, k1
Row 2 and all even numbered rows: purl
Row 3: k2 *yo, k4tog, yo, k3; end last repeat with k2
Row 5: k1 *k1, k2tog, yo, k5, yo, sl 1, k1, psso, k2
Row 7: k1 *k2tog, yo, k7, yo, sl 1 k1, psso, k1
Row 9: k2tog, yo, k9, yo *sl 1, k2tog, psso, yo, k9, yo; end last repeat with sl 1, k1, psso
Row 10: purl

Repeat these 10 rows for the pattern.   Edges are sloppy and will tend to curl since this stitch is stockinette based; depending on how you plan to use the stitch, you may want to add a garter or seed stitch border to neaten things up.

Happy Knitting!
