Petrichor is the earthy scent produced when rain falls on dry soil.

Petrichor is worked top down from the centre, adding 4 stitches every right side row- and finished at the bottom edge. There is a three stitch garter border on each side and a single centre stitch spine. The increases are yarn overs after the first and before the last three stitches, and are M1L increases on either side of the centre spine stitch. The lace pattern is worked only on the right side rows. You can work the lace from either written instructions or charts.
