CONSTRUCTION

• This lace triangle is worked from the outside in, starting with the lace edging which is worked side-to-side with a yarn over selvedge. After the lace edging is completed, stitches for the main section of the triangle are picked up from the yarn over selvedge. The remainder of the piece is worked from the bottom up and shaped with decreases until only a few stitches remain at the top center of the triangle. To finish, these remaining stitches are grafted together.
