Two pretty bits of lace by Herbert Niebling. There is an insert and an edging pattern, although the insert could easily be an edging as well. With size 60 crochet thread and size 1.5 mm needles, the edging will be 8 cm wide and the insert 5.5 cm wide.

For the insert cast on 29 stitches and work according to the Chart A. Purl the return rows. Repeat the chart as many times as needed to reach the desired length. For the edging, cast on 36 stitches and knit back and forth following chart B, repeating the design as many times as necessary to reach the desired length. Bind off the end and block the lace.

Remember:

  • Feel free to download and use the charts, print copies for your own use. However, you may not print them out and share them with others. Send folks to my website so they can download for themselves.
  • I don't own the original pattern, but I do own my recharted version. So, please don't copy my charts and claim them as your own or publish them under your name. If you want to have your own charts, then find the original patterns and rechart them yourself!
  • Do not sell copies of these charts. If I don't charge for my recharts, you certainly shouldn't charge for my recharts!
