I’ve begun to knit a summer lace shawl for myself – and because astonishingly I don’t find it boring there’s a little chance that I will finish it ;-)
\nBut the chance is little and so I present it already ;-))<\/p>\n

What I like best is that the base is a black-and-white chart that I designed myself (PDF file below at the links<\/a>) and that most people would connect with filet crochet or cross stitch<\/a> :)
\nIt reads soo much easier ;-)<\/p>\n

Please click the photo at the top<\/a> to marvel at the still unfinished shawl: I’m working it up from the narrow side, the orange thread at the side marks the point where the pattern from my chart ends.
\nI want to knit the pattern three or four times.<\/p>\n

 <\/div>\n

\"unikatissima
\nThe lace patterns tends to slant, the item therefore has to be blocked very carefully.
\nBut of course not until finished ;-)<\/p>\n

 <\/div>\n

<\/a>
\nHow-to:<\/strong><\/em>
\nThe chart only shows the rows on the right side.
\nI worked the filled squares from the chart with two knit stitches,
\nfor the empty squares I knitted two stitches together and made a yarn over.
\nThe rows on the wrong side are purled, even the yarn overs.<\/p>\n

Note:<\/strong><\/em> The last yarn over has to be maintained, therefore you need edge stitches, i.e. add a stitch on both sides of the row.
\nThe edge stitch will be slipped if it is first of the row and knitted if it is last.<\/p>\n

And that’s all there is to it ;-)<\/p>\n

<\/a>
\nOther methods:<\/strong><\/em> Eehm, after I’ve written all this I found the article about filet knitting<\/a> while surfing, where she presents and compares different methods to make the pattern with the holes.
\nSo if you don’t like mine try this one ;-)<\/p>\n

 <\/div>\n

<\/a>
\nAnother pattern:<\/strong><\/em>
\nBefore beginning something big as a shawl needless to say that I played around and tried another self-designed chart (PDF file below at the links<\/a>).<\/p>\n

 <\/div>\n

\"unikatissima<\/a> That is the pattern (if you want to work it you can download the PDF file (see links<\/a> below)).<\/p>\n

 <\/div>\n

\"unikatissima
\nHere I worked the filled squares of the chart as two knit stitches and the empty ones as two stitches knitted together and a yarn over (= the hole ;-)).<\/p>\n

 <\/div>\n

\"unikatissima
\nAnd here I worked it the other way around to see what I like better: I worked the filled squares of the chart as two stitches knitted together and a yarn over and the empty ones as two knit stitches.<\/p>\n

 <\/div>\n

But of course you can do a lot of different things from these charts, you can e.g. really filet crochet or cross stitch, but also bead weave, colour knit etc.
\nBest if you look again at my former blog entry<\/a> concerning this topic ;-)<\/p>\n
