Vierblatt (Mallin 404)
Vierblatt (Four Leaves) is similar to Langetta, but has only four repeats instead of 12. You can see a photo of it in the Ravelry database. This pattern is attributed to Linda and Herbert Niebling and was published in Mallin 404.
According to the original instructions, when made of fine silk with size 1 knitting needles the doily will be 18 cm in diameter. Made of medium-weight silk with size 2.5 knitting needles it will be approximately 40 cm in diameter. However, no specific sizes of crochet thread are given.
Cast on 4 stitches,join in a round, and repeat the chart 4 times per round. On the 19th, 23th and 27th round, slip the last stitch of the previous round to the left needle and only then start knitting (which means move the stitch marker one stitch to the right). After the 36th round, decrease as shown with a crochet hook. Chain 9 stitches between the decreases.
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!
