Remember this?
I have had several requests for the pattern here and on Ravelry, so here goes. I don't have the capacity to do a graphed pattern on my computer, so I have opted to use a sort of knitting shorthand instead of using words. Hopefully it will have a visual quality to it that will help you grasp the pattern of the pattern.
I used laceweight and size 3 needles. Your gauge may vary.
K= knit
O=yarn over
V= knit two together
(ssk)=slip slip knit

Those snow pictures are something else. I can't remember the last time I saw snow. Pretty pictures.
The leaf bookmark looks so beautiful! I'm putting this pattern in my queue. It looks like a great way to use up little odds of lace weight yarn. Thanks so much for it!
Wooot! Congratulations on getting that pattern written up! You've been wanting to do it for a while, and of course now that means I have to try it . . . ;-)
Thanks for the pattern. I'll have to try it. I have been thinking of you and I appreciate your email to me. I'm really behind and I just wanted to let you know I hadn't forgotten you!
I think that maybe when your pattern gets to row 11, it should say repeat rows 7-10 instead of 5-10. It doesn't work out right otherwise. I haven't finished the pattern, I got stuck there and have bene trying to figure it out. If that's not right and I'm doing something wrong, please correct me.
It's a beautiful pattern but I'm a bit of a perfectionist and it's driving me crazy that it's not counting out right.
Thank you for posting this, though!
It's lovely!
Yes something goes awry at the "repeat rows 7-10". I end up with too many stitches at the end of the row.
Is it OK or KO?
Can you also explain what to do on row 1?
I’m very sorry if this is too much but I’m a beginner and I just feels a bit confused.
Thank you
