Several years ago, I made a lace knitting stitch pattern out of the word โfriendshipโ and I also included a plain chart to be used for needlework. It wasnโt a great needlework chart, so I just made some minor formatting changes to the lace instructions, and made a whole new blog post for the needlework.
