Notes

Abb. 72 Rundes Deckchen mit vierteiligem Mittelstern (round doily with four-part center star) from the Das Stricken section of Lacis’ Knitted Lace II (Kunst-Stricken II)]1.

The chart! Argh! Works out fine until Row 28, where it has been cut vertically and pasted back together missing three stitches from each row!

Fortunately, each of these rows has two repeats, so I was able to rechart and work out what the missing stitches had to be.

The charts in my photos are my own work (not photos of the one from the book), created using a Burda-style knitting font.

Hmm, I tried a crochet-chain cast-off, and don’t like how it looks, so I’ll probably unpick it and use the plain cast-off used in the book.
