Description

From the book: "This pattern bears some resemblance to the regular cabled Lattice, but is constructed entirely of simple knit and purl stitches. The “lattice” is seen when odd-numbered rows are used as the wrong side. If even-numbered rows are placed on the wrong side instead, then the result is a pretty pattern of embossed knit-stitch diamonds on a purled ground."
