Small V lace is a cute lace stitch pattern, consisting of 2 types of single decreases and yarn overs. It’s very suited for both all-over patterning, and use in an accent panel. This stitch pattern is worked in a multiple of 8 + 1 stitches. Please note that in the above picture, I’ve added 2 edge stitches in garter stitch on both sides of the swatch.
