TIPS FOR LACE KNITTING
1 Use pointy needles. With so many decreases, yos and ssks you’ll want to work at a decent pace. Blunt needles will make working stitches much trickier.
Insert lifelines (yarn threaded through a single row) at regular intervals, adding them at the beginning of the pattern repeat so you only have to frog that far.
