Thistles, Thistles
The garter stitch base builds quickly with all rows the same and no short rows.
Instructions are provided for how to set up the lace can without counting all of your stitches.
Then you have the choice between a chart or a Hempsall Handy Table for the lace section, which is surprisingly quick and easy to work.
Many thanks to the testers for their knits and feedback:
