Discovered what I am doing wrong in my lace knitting. It seems I wrap my yarn over stitch backwards from what most people do, then when I purl on the return row, I try to purl from the front leg of the yarn over stitch. Result is a twisted stitch with a smaller hole. I had questioned this many times, but had felt the resulting hole when I did it the other (the correct way) was too big.
I had to learn and be willing to open up my knitting and be more accepting of the holes. Once I started to do that my pattern became more discernible. SO now I wonder, do I start over or just continue in the new way and live with the resulting consequences of the past? A familiar dilemma.
