Description

From the book: "Here is an exquisite Italian lace pattern which appears simple but is actually a bit tricky to work, due to the position of the yo's which makes them hard to decrease with the stitch alongside on the next row. The main difficulty will be with the second "p2 tog-b" in Row 4, and the "p2 tog-b" of Row 6. These decreases may be more easily accomplished in the following manner: purl the first stitch (that is, the yo of the previous row) and slip this stitch back to the left needle; then with the right needle pass the next stitch over it and off the left needle; then slip the same stitch back to the right needle and proceed with the following yo."
