Description:
Follow the links above for explanation of how to work the different parts of the lace. This is worked exactly the same as a circular mat, a quarter at a time.
The start is along a diagonal (although it looks horizontal above!), so one pair starts at each pin, and two at the edge. Above, I have marked the position of the false pins.

In the photo, the footside passive is a different colour. You can do this or not, as you please.
