📐 Visual and Detailed Pattern
The top is worked vertically. The lace pattern is fully charted and described row by row. Most of the top is in garter stitch, giving you moments of rest between lace sections.
🧶 Difficulty Level
Recommended for intermediate knitters. The lace is created with increases and decreases on both right and wrong sides, so this is not a pattern for absolute beginners.

Gauge
In a 10×10 cm (4×4 in) square you should have 20 sts and 40 rows worked in Garter st. You should have 20 sts and 33 rows working half Garter St, half lacework pattern. The amount of rows is different depending on the stitch pattern. The amount of rows when working lacework gauge will determine the circumference of the bust, so you should make sure you get 33 rows and match both gauges.
