Notes

I’ve decided to use a US8 needle (I really don’t like working with needles larger than an 8.) I’ve also decided to use the knit in the round instructions:

CO 252 stitches.

R1: k2, p3, k1, p1, rep
R2: k1, yo, k1, sl1, p2, psso the p2, k1, p1, rep
R3: k3, p2, k1, p1, rep
R4: sl1, k2, psso the k2, p1, yo, p1, k1, p1 rep

Knit this 4-round repeat @24 times (or to get to the desired width).

Block.

Can’t say I much enjoyed knitting this. The yarn no longer appeals (though it’s not bad, I’ve just moved on from superwash and super bright shades) and lacework is work. But the end result should be quite nice, though I’m blocking it slightly shorter and narrower than the instructions show because I had less yarn.

In fact this is only the second time that I used up every last yard. My final bind off stitch left me with a 4 inch end to weave in. Very satisfying.
