Easy, fun-to-knit pattern would be perfect for a first encounter with lace knitting. Juxtaposition of yarnovers and decreases makes the leaves “pop” towards the purl side, which is the right side of the garment. The garment is unblocked to keep this effect. Hardly any shaping is involved.

Level of Difficulty: Easy

Materials: Baby Llama, 2 balls

Needles:

  • US 8 / 5 mm
  • 16 in / 40 cm circular US 7 / 4.5 mm for edging
