Looking for a light and elegant knitting project for summer? This easy lacy pattern using mercerized yarn is just what you need! With its breathable and airy texture, this model is perfect for shawls, vests, or children's clothing. We use a 100-gram mercerized cotton yarn that measures 350 meters, and a size 4 knitting needle. The key is to keep your stitches loose—remember, this is meant to be a light, flowing summer piece!
The pattern is very beginner-friendly and consists of a 4-row repeat. The number of stitches should be a multiple of 2. In the first row, you knit all stitches straight. In the second row (backside), you knit stitches two by two to decrease them. In the third row, you increase the stitches again by wrapping the yarn once before each stitch. Then, the fourth row is simply purling all stitches.
As the model grows, you'll see the lacy texture form beautifully. It doesn’t curl at the edges, even without elastic, making it ideal for various summer garments. You can use mercerized cotton, regular cotton, or any yarn suitable for seasonal knits. It’s fluffy, elegant, and easy to adapt for adult or kids’ projects alike.
If you're looking for a beautiful, versatile, and easy pattern to knit this summer, give this model a try. Happy knitting!
