It is an easy lace pattern, you can follow the written instruction (full 188 rows) or follow the Chart (till row 34) but after a few repeats, you will not Need the instructions anymore. The pattern knits in quickly and it becomes an easy, joyfull knit, perfect to be knitted in front of the TV ;o)

Instead of a classic bind of, I worked a crochet one, this gives you a nice lacy boarder but of course you could also work a knitted bind off.
