Little butterfly or bowknot stitchEntry/Object ID
2020.1.192Description
From the book: "'Bowknot Stitch' is often used as a name for this pattern, although it is something of a misnomer, as the real Bowknot Stitch is something else. 'Little Butterfly' is to be preferred, since the pattern is worked in much the same manner as the Butterfly. Note, however, the slight difference in the method of gathering the strands."Collection

Lizzie's mother taught her to knit when she was eleven and she has been knitting ever since. She has tried many different types — from Aran and Fair Isle to lace — and enjoys experimenting with making different objects and types of yarn. She loves the variety of items that can be created in this medium, and nearly always has something on the go.Lexicon
