This laced knit & crochet belt is a modern twist on the Victorian corset. With a stitch pattern that brings to mind herringbone fabric; zigzagging lace and slipped stitches create a wide belt that will emphasize the smallest part of your waist. The perfect ribbon will add either a touch of whimsy or elegance depending on your preference. The border is simple enough for a knitter to make her first foray into the worlds of crochet stitches. A satisfyingly quick project that is perfect for that skein of luxury yarn.

The pattern contains instructions for customizing the size to your exact specifications.

Also needed: ribbon or tie to lace belt.
