From the book: "This is a very handsome pattern of the lattice type, excellent for sweaters. It can be enriched with bobbles or embroidery- "lazy-daisy", a "snowflake", or some small cross-stitch motif in the center of each diamond of purl. For further embellishment, the knit stitches can be either Crossed or Twisted. For a single "Hourglass", see Basic Lattice."Collection

Audrey learned to knit from her grandmother when she was three years old. She is now retired and lives on a small farm with sheep. She uses their wool to spin yarn and create knitwear. Audrey enjoys her life on the farm but feels there is too little time to craft everything she wants to try!Lexicon
