Easy Eyelet Gaiter Pattern

This beautiful cowl is a simple play on ribbing and border stitches to create a design that looks much harder than it really is to knit. The lace patterning in the ribbing consists of only two different lace round repeats, making for an easy to memorize design. Knit in a lace weight yarn, a beautiful drape is added to this delicate, but easy cowl. The Easy Eyelet Gaiter is worked completely in the round and is a wonderful pattern to get familiar with lace knitting and charted patterns. The pattern uses charts for the lace work portions of the pattern.
