Description:
Follow the links above for explanation of how to work the different parts of the lace.
The pink arrows show which direction the horizontal lines go. To make a honeycomb pattern with this type of grid, there has to be a flat top (and bottom) to the honeycomb. That means that some pairs have to travel sideways, horizontally, and it is very important to figure out which way they are going!
You end up with two pairs at the edge, so you need to work a plait down to the next pin.
