This was one of those project that was just dragging on and on. The project was put on hold I don’t know how many times. It was one of the downfall of having several knitting machines and used them all at the same time.
I fumbled on the YouTube tutorials in machine knitting this fan-lace stitch. I just had to try it out but kept putting it off. I finally decided to make a cape with this stitch.
I should have stretched it out and steam it so the lace pattern would define more. Maybe, I will one of these days.
