Note: For crochet lace,it may be necessary to fudge' the sts for the amount needed to fit around section you are working on. In some cases you may have to spread out the stitches to decrease the amount and in some you may have to increase. This can be done 2 ways, if you are confident enough to get all your sts on the first row to be the foundation row, go forit! Others may be more comfortable working 1 row even to match the amount of knit sts, then inc/dec on the second row and considering this to be the foundation row, before starting lace pattern. How ever you do it make sure you read the instructions carefully and have the correct amount of sts before you begin the lace. Crochet lace: Please note pattern is worked in the round for the sleeve and back and forth for garment edge and collar.
