Chinese Eyelet Lace Stitch and Cowl Pattern
Chinese Eyelet Lace Stitch Pattern and the Eyelet Cowl Pattern
I am grateful to the person who shared this pattern, and I have tested it, and it is correct.
Eyelet Lace Cowl Pattern
You will need:
2-3 balls Worsted weight yarn. For a this Cowl, I aim for approximately 16" high; increase or decrease size to your need.
I usually keep knitting until the yarn runs out. This should give a nice, cozy, puddle effect around the neck.
5mm Cable [at least 16"] Knitting needles, Darning needle, scissors.
You will need to know how to:
Knit, Purl, Knit in the round, SSK [Slip, slip, knit], knit 2 together, and yarn over.
Foundational Row
Cast on 133 Stitches, or a multiple of 12, plus one for the invisible join.
Invisible Join: Making sure your row is untwisted, join your work by slipping the first stitch from the left needle of your cable needle, onto the right needle side. Then pass the last stitch from your right needle over this first stitch. You should now have 132 stitches. I have supplied the link for a visual tutorial above if you need help.
Setting up for the First Row
Place a stitch maker at the beginning of the row, and one every 12 stitches. Use a different color or kind for the beginning of the row. This helps to keep track of the row beginning, and separates the pattern repeats differently from the row beginning.
