Large Tulip Lace

Large Tulip Lace.

Translation of Above Text:

Materials: 250 g cotton yarn
Needles: No. 3

The jumper pattern is shown in Fig. 57, and the stitch pattern in Fig. 56. Knitting begins with a decorative edge that forms as you cast on. Cast on an even number of stitches using the standard cast-on method, leaving a long tail of yarn.

Row 1: Using a double strand of yarn (the main yarn and the long tail), knit all stitches two together through the back loop.
Row 2: Knit all stitches using only the main yarn. (Continue knitting all following rows with the main yarn only.)
Row 3: Purl all stitches, knitting the stitches that form between the purl stitches (from the connecting strands).

Then knit 4 rows in stockinette stitch (knit on the right side, purl on the wrong side) and begin the pattern shown in Fig. 56.

The neckline is finished with a decorative cast-on edge as well. Work the first 3 rows as described above, then knit 4 rows, and graft the live stitches neatly to finish.

  1. This pattern doesn’t correspond the photograph. The side leafs of the tulips have holes following their outline but not on the pattern. Also, the whole sweater has knits on the face while the pattern has both, knits and purls.

  2. I think there is space between the tulip motifs in the chart that doesn’t correspond with any stitches. So, in the chart, they left empty squares between some of the stitches to make the chart easier to read.
