<br />
<br />
A great reference for making Lace on your USM. If you hand knit and are familiar with knitting with charts then this will be easy for you. If you aren't a chart knitter, like me, I need to be able to at-a -glance look at what each symbol means. This book not only has all the symbols and what they mean to a hand-knitter but then how to perform them on a knitting machine. There are a ton of lace patterns (charts) as well.<br />
This was posted on another site, I do not know it's author but assuming it is safe to post here. Here is the link to the book, you can download and print from there.<br />

<li><span style="font-family: Arial Narrow; font-size: medium;">Using an e-wrap, cast on 21 stitches. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial Narrow; font-size: medium;"> Manually knit the first row. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial Narrow; font-size: medium;">Using the intarsia technique, knit until RC = 200. (Tip – as you knit, if any of the stitches do not knit, be sure to fix them before knitting the next row. This is usually caused by an errant “ladder” catching on the needle, but if you don’t fix it, the needle will not kit more rows.) </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial Narrow; font-size: medium;">Using the 1-prong tool, move the stitches on the needles into the hooks of the needles (so they don’t drop when you pull down on the knitting). </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial Narrow; font-size: medium;">Drop every other stitch STARTING AT THE EDGE STITCHES. (This prevents the edges from being too tight.) Bind off the stitches on the needles loosely. Continue unraveling the stitches to the hem. </span></li>

<span style="font-family: Arial Narrow; font-size: medium;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial Narrow; font-size: medium;"><b>NOTES</b><br />We've all searched the stores for American flags but to no avail. But there's plenty of red, white and blue yarn in the stores and you have your Sweater Machine, so knit a flag.<br /><br />The 13 stripes and blue background for the stars are done in stripes and intarsia respectively. The stars are duplicate-stitched after the flag has been knitted. This pattern includes two options for finishing: a hem (or casing) on both top and bottom (through which you can also insert dowels to hang your flag) with a backwards crochet at the ends. Or you can work a backward crocheted edge around all sides (in either gold or the flag colors).<br /><br />Note that this pattern requires having two Sweater Machine beds bolted together since you will need 192 needles. Remember that you are knitting mirror image, so the blue background will be on your right as you knit. Start your knitting on the left so the cut ends from the stripes are on the LHS so the yarn ends will be at the left edge rather than abutting the blue section.<br /><br />Option A gives instructions for the stars in the blue section to be knitted in using the Fair Isle or intarsia technique. (Remember to catch in the long floats between the stars if you are using Fair Isle.) Option B gives instructions for the stars to be duplicate-stitched after the throw has been knitted.<br /><br /><b>INSTRUCTIONS</b><br /><b>Step 1:</b><br /><b>Option #1:</b> Hem or casing edge:<br />1. Bring forward 192 needles to HP and cast on as many stitches with WY.<br />2. COL. K 4 R. Break off.<br />3. With red, K 12 R.<br />4. Using 3-prong tool (1-prong tool is optional), lift up stitches from first row MY to needles across row.<br />5. K 8 R. Break off.<br />6. With white, K 14 R. Break off.<br />7. With red, K 14 R.<br />8. Repeat steps 6 & 7 until a total of 6 stripes have been knitted, ending with white<br />stripe.<br /><br /><b>Option #2:</b> Crocheted edges:<br />1.
