Eyelet triangles lace knitting stitch.
A striking, highly textured lace pattern. The dominant visual element is a series of interconnected chevron (V-shape) ridges that run horizontally across the fabric, creating a strong sense of movement and dimension. These ridges are formed by strategically placed yarn overs (eyelets) that create openwork channels, contrasting beautifully with sections of more dense knitting. Within each chevron, there are also smaller, delicate fan-like or leaf-like clusters achieved through decreases and eyelets. The pattern has a distinct textured relief, with the solid knitted portions appearing raised, while the eyelet sections recede. This results in a fabric with excellent drape and visual interest, perfect for projects where texture and openwork are desired.
Chart Notes:
- Numbers 1-11 on the right side – These represent row numbers.
- “14 + 1 + 2” at the bottom – This indicates the stitch count for the pattern repeat: 14 stitches for the main repeat, plus 1 stitch for symmetry, plus 2 edge/selvage stitches.
The top center of this pattern is marked as “knit three together, slip one, knit 2 together, pass slipped stitch over”.
I believe the intent is to use one or the other of those decreases, as otherwise you end up 2 stitches short on rows 9 and 11.
But since it seems to be aiming for a 3 > 1 decrease without leaning either way, you could do a centered double decrease here instead. Slip 2 knitwise, knit 1, Pass both slipped stitches over.
Just thought I’d leave a note since this had me confused for a bit until I figured out what it was asking for.
