These lace squares were inspired by a Victorian pattern first published in 1891. They are knitted diagonally and are a simple combination of garter stitch and eyelets.

This pattern uses the squares to make a shawl measuring 38 x 115 cm but they could also be made into light blankets.

Included in the pattern are instructions for a simple way of blocking the squares to size that doesn’t involve any measuring.

All my ravelry patterns are free to download but, if you enjoy them, please consider making a donation to the Children’s Liver Disease Foundation, a charity which funds research and supports the families of children with a liver disease. You can do this easily by going to my fundraising page www.justgiving.com/frankiesknittedstuff

Happy Knitting!
