Tessa Lorant’s original instructions* call for working 1-to-6 inc
as ([k1, p1] 3 times) in next st
, and k6tog
as BO 5 sts
.
I suspect that row 8 is wrong re: the k/p in the center. And I wonder if the pattern might make more sense if the nupps – if we can call them that – were worked consistently on the same rows, instead of being slightly staggered. Compare to Antique Edging, v2.
