From the book: "This is a pretty, crisp little eyelet that can be substituted for Stockinette Stitch in almost any garment. It is a good allover pattern for fine-yarn sweaters, dresses, etc. Cloverleaf Eyelet Rib: The Cloverleaf Eyelet is beautifully adapted to vertical patterns, such as the Cloverleaf Eyelet Rib and Cloverleaf Eyelet Cable. In this Rib variation, the pattern could be widened by working on a multiple of 7 sts plus 2, inserting 2 purl sts between ribs instead of one. Cloverleaf Eyelet Cable: Because of the slant of the decreases, the Cloverleaf Eyelet in vertical arrangement can be made to resemble a dainty little cable done in openwork. This cable pattern also makes a very attractive fancy ribbing when worked on aa multiple of 5 sts plus 2 - i.e., three cable sts with 2 purl sts in between."Collection
