Swatch for Chair Cover 12: Another Leaf Pattern from Exercises in Knitting by Cornelia Mee. Note: The swatch in the photo is made up with 2 extra stitches on each side; the pattern is repeated twice horizontally and vertically.

Pattern

The original pattern is for a chair cover, but this pretty lacy leaf pattern could be made into a shawl or other garment.

Abbreviations:
k2tog: knit two stitches together
yo: yarn over

Each pattern is made up of 15 sts and 16 rows; repeat as required. (Note: stitch numbers change throughout as noted in the pattern).
