I can't remember where I learned this stitch pattern - it's:
[k2tog, k3, yo, k1, yo, k3, ssk] with a selvedge stitch on each end, so you cast on any multiple of 11 plus 2. But I like it, and the yarn wanted to be in it, so I used the Phildar yarn I bought in France to make a cute little lace sweater... we're going to a 7-year-old's birthday party next week, so Emily is just a temporary model (albeit a cute one!).
I'm pretty proud of the outcome... I enjoy patterns, but successful winging it is just so satisfying!
Details:
Phildar Auteuil yarn, Iris colorway - 3 balls
10mm (US size 15) needles for cast on
3.75mm (US size 5) needles for remainder of project
~16 yards narrow polyester ribbon for edging
3.75mm (US F/5) crochet hook for edging
