Laced Wrap

Another "Luxe-Knitty" Design of mine was just published in the new Lynne Barr's Reversible Knitting book.

LACY HALTER- helpful tip

Once you start back Lace Insert in col A (instructions at the bottom of page 68)- attach separate ball of col A yarn at both markers (so that whichever end you reach when you wrap & turn- you will always have yarn to work with).

ERRATA on page 68- it should be:

Round 32: *P1, (k1, p1) seven times, k2tog, (p1, k1) six times, rep from *,- 140 (168)sts Rounds 33, 34 & 35 ( still in color B): *P1, k1, rep from *
