Please note that this lace block patterns are the same of my Mystery Lace Blanket KAL, but with different number of sts and rows. The materials, gauge and general characteristics of these blocks are the same as the ones in my 52 Square Pickup series. You can review them by clicking HERE.
THE ENTIRE PATTERN for both blocks (written and charted) IS BELOW.
ABBREVIATIONS

- BO: bind off
- RS: right side
- WS: wrong side

LACE dishcloth pattern N°3
– CO 43 sts with US 7 (4.5 mm) needles.
| I always cast on and bind off stitches with larger needles than I use for the main work. This prevent my cast on and bind off rows from being too tight. |
– With US 6 (4 mm) needles, knit 4 rows.
| Slip first stitch on every row as if you were to knit it, but without knitting it (except on the first row). It will form a neat and sturdy border. |
– Continue working as follows:
4 garter sts, LACE N°3 pattern over 35 sts, 4 garter sts.
Work 5 times the LACE PATTERN N°3 complete and then rows 1) to 3) again. Do not forget to work the preparation rows first 🙂
– Knit 4 rows.
– Bind off with US 7 (4.5 mm) needle. Cut yarn and weave in ends.
