Why “cheater’s” lace? Because to me, lace is supposed to have a complicated pattern of yarnovers and decreases. There’s supposed to be a chart, and it should require immense concentration. This? Not so much. No yarnovers. No chart. The whole time I worked on this, I couldn’t help feeling like I was cheating: getting a beautiful lacy effect without having to follow a pattern. You need to be able to remember two things: which side you’re working, and the stitch pattern for one stitch.
