What is the cast on amount ?? Does the pattern start on the wrong or right side ?
I would read this as cast on multiples of 34 +2 (edge stitches). Someone better at maths might be able to work out where to break for different stitch numbers. The usual convention is the first row is right side unless otherwise stated.
to work this swatch cast on 36 stitches. The pattern starts on the right side.
From the pattern, it looks like it’s multiples of 16 +2
This image has 32 + 2 + 2 edge stitches.
About the right side or wrong side, I’d stitch up two samples and check which one works. If you do, please add the details to the comments so that the community could benefit. Good luck!
Looking at the sample piece, Row 1, the RS is:
Sel stitch, *P2,K1,P12,K1*,P2,Sel stitch
Is it possible to get a written pattern for the Japanese lace
Wow, this is an amazing pattern and a wonderful site to find. Thank you for everything you do to keep us knitters busy.
Thank you!
Are the back rows (2, 4, 6, etc.) really right? I mean, if I knit them, the pattern would look different to the sample.
The pattern is beautiful but not correct. You dont get the middle of the leave and edges of leaves like in a picture. I will adjust the pattern, but it would be nice to have correct one
Did you figure out the correct pattern from the presented picture? I am a learner and can’t figure it out by myself, but would be very grateful if you shared your corrections.
Hi Emma
Did you manage to adjust the pattern to be correct. I also fell in love with this pattern and tried to adjust it but couldn’t.

I think the pattern is correct – the lady is just a very neat knitter. Also, i think she’s knitting on or under the recommended needle size – she hasn’t increased the needle size for lace. The chart is for 2 repeats – the picture shows 3 – so CO 53 sts for 3 columns (17 x 3 + 2 selvage sts). What I want to know is why the pattern uses reverse garter stitch (purl every row) – instead of garter? Sure, it’s easier in this pattern because you can just purl the back all the way through – no thinking required (hardly, there are a ew knit stitches in a column), also it’s easier to see on the front what you’re doing. It seems looser- and better balanced than garter stitch proper – and not as tight – so doesn’t mess up the shape of the overall piece as much as garter, which condenses rows quite a bit. Maybe I’ve just answered my own question – but I just wanted to know what the wisdom is behind making the knitter purl so much, if the fabric produced is allegedly the same as garter stitch … ? What do cozy hands know about reverse garter stitch that we don’t?
Actually, I miscounted earlier, it’s a
16 + 2 (+2 selvage) stitches pattern,
so cast on (16 x 3 = 48 + 2 + 2 selvage =) 52 stitches
to replicate the 3 columns shown …
It is so kind for whoever created this design to have it translated in English.
KUDOS to you!!! What a beautiful design this is to knit
Thank you kindly.
