Peacock - $8.00 CAD (~$7.35 USD)
I discovered that this lovely Estonian lace pattern is a great match for self-patterning yarns. With the Peacock stitch and the yarn, the scalloped stripes just pop out. It makes for a beautiful look. This is a simple introduction to lace knitting and it's sized from preemies to 4-yr-olds so you're sure to find someone for whom you can knit it.
Size: 3-5 lb preemie, 8 lb newborn, 12 mo, 4T
Techniques: k2tog, ssk, yarn overs, make one increases, reverse stocking stitch trim.
The yarns used in the photographed sweaters are Opal Petticoat (1290) with Opal Uni light blue (27) in size 12 mo modeled by Meika. Opal yarns were generously provided by Ladybug Yarns.
