Lace knitting is the process of
creating intentional holes in your
project. In most instances, you
do this by forming a yarn over
and in this particular pattern, you
complete a yfwd. Put simply,
this is an eyelet hole positioned
between two knit stitches.BACK

back is worked in two
halves then joined
