Goldlack

An obscure but pretty design by Herbert Niebling, first published in Beyer 361, in 1937. There is only one Goldlack project listed on Ravelry.com. You can see the pattern information here. The center is also used in another obscure Niebling pattern, Marie Louise.

Cast on 6 stitches and join in a round. Begin knitting Chart A, repeating the design 6 times per round. Knit the rounds that are not shown. In rounds 26, 28 and 30, purl the 7 stitches of the calyxes. After Round 62, repeat the design 24 times per round. After the 116th round, slip the last two stitches of the round back to the left needle. Bind off with a crochet hook, decreasing the stitches as shown on the last round. Chain 11 stitches between decreases and join the last ch11 to the first decrease. Crochet one more round: chain 11 and then ch1 into the arch of the previous round. Repeat until the round is complete, cut the thread, tie off and weave in the ends.

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!
