This design is from the same newspaper clipping as last week's pattern, thus the "another" of the title. However, it is not another pattern at all, but rather the same pattern worked on a smaller scale. The garter stitch edging has an 8-row repeat and a stitch count of 10 increasing to 13, returning to the original number in the final row.

Such a sweet looking trim. I'll be keeping it in mind for a dainty project. Thanks!
I began knitting lace about 15 years ago, and what began as curiosity quickly became a passion.
I have frequented used bookstores and antique shops for some 40 years, and have acquired an extensive library of works on textile arts going back to the 1850s.
This blog chronicles the patterns found in a late-Victorian composition book that was used by an anonymous east-central Illinois knitter as a knitted lace sample book. Some of the instructions were clipped out of newspapers, others written out by hand. Most were accompanied by a small sample worked in fine thread.
For more on the original book, see post #1, The Project. Phase Two of the blog documents the patterns in another late-Victorian knitter's notebook from my collection described in the August 2010 post Son of the Project. While including many knitted lace designs, the book also contains directions to make mittens, afghans, baby leggings and more.
