Lace Patterns

[mamaoso]

I don't think I'm quite ready for a KAL yet, but I can dream. I know how to knit and purl and slip stitches and increase and decrease, but I'm terribly slow, and quite clumsy.

My mom is an expert knitter, as were both my grandmothers, and I hope to be as good at it as them someday. (I am hoping some sort of genetic tendency to being a good knitter would show up soon!!)

 

I do know how to read and work from a crochet chart, but I know for sure I'm not ready for lace!!

 

If you can do all that you are ready to give it a try..

Just use a sock/fingerweight yarn. The Branching Out scarf I used a DK yarn and it turn out great..

You just don't want to start with Lace weight yarn.. I tried that and didn't work out to well.

Thanks for the encouragement.
