Neapolitan Lace
Neapolitan Lace stitch pattern from the January 1884 issue of Ballou’s Monthly Magazine. It’s reversible! I found the magazine on Google Books a few years ago, but The Weekly Stitch also blogged the stitch pattern on March 31, 2023.

Tunisian Lace
The Ladies' Own Page. Ballou's Monthly Magazine, vol. 59 no. 2, February 1884, p. 188
Wide Tunisian Lace. It's really just Neapolitan Lace from the January issue with repeats of the central diamond motif.
Following 139 year old knitting instructions is half the fun. In the 21st century, this:
Knit three, over, knit one, over, slip one, narrow, throw over the slipped stitch, over, knit five, over, slip one, narrow, throw over the slipped stitch, over, knit five, over, slip one, narrow, throw over the slipped stitch, over, knit four, over, narrow, knit one.
becomes this:
K3, yo, k1, (yo, sk2p, yo, k5) 2 times, yo, sk2p, yo, k4, yo, k2tog, k1.
This morning I went to the library to grab a #stitchdictionary ready for step 2 of #initiateknitdesign. Today was full of flipping through books looking for patterns and creating poor sketches of my thoughts. I had two ideas forming, so decided to swatch for them both. One worked and one failed ... so it's time to move forward with the working idea 😄 I am having so much fun! #crafts #crochet #crochetgirlgang #crochetconcupiscence #crochetaddict #crochetersofinstagram #crochetlove #instacrochet #crochetdesign #ahoraknits #yarn #yarnlove #yarnaddict #patterndesign #stitchpattern #tea #creativity
Another installment for my long term Victorian Knitting Sampler.

I love knitting samples of stitch patterns or edge patterns but I am afraid that one day I will run out of places to store them... #knitting #stitchpattern #swatches #patterns na
Step 3 for the #initiateknitdesign - SWATCH! I am not a fan of swatching, but I understand why it's important and I am glad I took this step as I was able to sort out some design kinks 😁 On a different note this yarn is IMPOSSIBLE to photograph ... it's a different colour every time. #crafts #crochet #crochetgirlgang #crochetconcupiscence #crochetaddict #crochetersofinstagram #crochetlove #instacrochet #crochetdesign #ahoraknits #yarn #yarnlove #yarnaddict #patterndesign #stitchpattern #tea #creativity
