Sisters of the Home: Here are directions for knitting Normandy lace. I know you will like it. Be sure to knit it loosely. It comes in points and wheels. The points are solid, but the wheels are open. - Julie Beers.
The garter stitch edging is a "true" knitted lace with every row a pattern row. The stitch count rises steadily in the first half of the pattern, but the added stitches are worked off in a less orderly fashion in the second half of the 12-row repeat.

I don't think I've thanked you yet for swatching all of these lace patterns and sharing them! I look forward to every new post and have enjoyed them all - it's such a treat to see a different stitch pattern, and even more, to have another window into the lives of knitters from so long ago. The more things change, the more they stay the same ;^)
Thanks you for another great pattern. I haven't seen one like this before. It looks like it was hard to knit. I like the contrast between the diamond lace and the scallops on the edge.
Thank you for this beautiful pattern.
