NOTES:

  • Testers reported a wide range of yardage used. While I and others only needed three skeins of Lichen & Lace, others reported needing up to 100 yards more based on their tension. It is recommended to buy more than anticipated if you think you may have a looser tension.

  • Gauge is not essential but the sample used up nearly all of the 3 skeins of the Lichen and Lace Heather Sport so please take yarn requirements into account should you alter the gauge or weight of the yarn used. 


  • I prefer to use a DPN for the lace border but it is possible to knit the border using only the circular needles.
