Close up of the lace....
Here's the pattern:
Materials
Patons Serenity DK (00004)
Pair each of 31/4 mm (UK 10) and 4 mm (UK 8)
needles.
150 cm of narrow ribbon.
Tension
20 sts and 31 rows to 10 cm (lace pattern), 20 sts and
28 rows to 10 cm (stocking stitch) on 4 mm needles or
size needed to achieve stated tension.
Check your tension before starting your garment. If
there are too many stitches to 10 cm, your tension is tight and you
should change to a larger size needle. If there are too few, your
tension is loose and you should change to a smaller size needle. It is
essential to work to the stated tension, and we cannot accept
responsibility for the finished product if any yarn other than the
specified yarn is used.
