Tiny Hoop 2 Knitting Pattern

The second in my “Tiny Hoop” triptych. The sister pattern to Tiny Hoop 1, this is a delicate, ethereal piece of textile art that can be knitted up in around an hour. We combine short rows, textured stitches, lace, and gathered stitches to make a beautiful piece of hoop art.

Using only 25 m/27yds of laceweight yarn, this is the definition of quick to knit. It’s perfect gifting material, and a highly creative way to use up leftover yarn. In terms of high impact for low effort, you’d find it hard to find a better knitting project.
