Description

From the book: "This extraordinarily beautiful lace pattern is a joy to work even though the pattern rows are numerous. For a test swatch, cast on at least 42 st, or else the rosettes at the intersections of the diamonds will not be seen. Note that there is a yo before the ending st of Rows 3, 21, and 39. The number of st remains the same throughout."
