Lace

Lookit, Lookit! I've designed lace! That really works when you knit it up! (I'll stop with the exclaimation marks now.)

I was looking through a couple of different lace pattern books, thinking I'd find a pattern I liked and would make a shawl from the green yarn I bought last week. Nothing really grabed me though there was a pattern a bit like what I've designed that I liked. The pattern was as an insert though. So I started mucking about with it a bit and lookit, a shawl body pattern.
The triangles that fill in the left are ssk, the ones that fill in the right are k2tog, the O's are YO, the upside down Y's are slip one, k2tog, psso and the | are the first knit stitch of the row. There a k2tog in the bottom row that should be a knit stitch, but aside from that the pattern works. So very cool, for me at least.
