knit lace edging

Now that you have the inspiration...are you ready to give a serious consideration about knitting your own beautiful lace edging for any of your projects? It makes you The Best, to have created a thing of such Great Beauty that someone would pay good money for it in the fancy shops,... so long as they don't know how EASY lace is. After you knit up your first gorgeous lace edging on something, there's nothing like the taste of success! From a scarf to shawl or sweater, lace edging is the perfect way to take your knitting projects from simple knits and purls into something delicate and fancy.

But for now, before we get to the step-by-step instructions on how to knit a lace edging - let's look at everything you'll need. You are gonna need lace weight yarn for this project as it is much thinner and lighter in comparison to your usual ball of yarn, which you would use without the hesitation during a cold winter day. You will also need to have a pair of knitting needles in the size required by the yarn label. Injecting the proper needle size hole allows you to knit your lace pattern and get wonderful results.

Choosing the Right Lace Pattern

This whole creative process begins with the first step of choosing a right lace pattern based on your vision. There are many lace edging patterns to choose from, but later on we'll feature five distinct ones that will serve as inspirations and guides. The stitches specified in the pattern to cast on - do that once done picking your desired patter. Either you can do a standard casting on method or use the provisional cast-on and will be removed quite easily.

Then move on to the rest of your project, knitting across until it is as long as you would like before moving onto where the lace edging will begin. This makes it so important to keep up with the lace pattern row by row, especially when you are new at reading a chart. Follow the pattern instructions carefully and keep a stitch count. Strategically placed markers to mark stitch repeats will also help streamline your knitting process.
