Horseshoe
Lace Top
Horsehoe Lace is a traditional Shetland lace pattern.

The secret behind many traditional patterns is that

they really are very easy. Youll learn to love this
simple lace pattern while knitting the front and back
panels. After you are comfortable with the lace, well
make the A-line side panels by adding extra stitches
between lace repeats and gradually decreasing those
extra stitches. This piece will give you practice in
basic lace knitting, mattress stitch seaming, and an
introduction to some simple sweater design principles.
