Show The Salt Lake Tribune. Sunday. March 14. 1982 W 7 Simple experimental pattern stitches By Pat Trexler Dear Pat: I recently bought a basic pullover sweater pattern and would like to vary the basic design by adding panels or borders of lace stitches to it.

Then, insert the tip of the left needle into the fronts of these 2 stitches and knit them together from this position. A double yamover is made by bringing the yarn to the front of your work after a knit stitch and then wrapping the yam completely around the needle, again returning it to the front of your work. Here is a lace insert, worked over a panel of 10 stitches which I think you might enjoy. For rows 1 and 3 (the right side of your work), knit 3, knit 2 together, make a double yamover, knit 3.
