Posts 18976 		I`m coming down the line with the MT tank back-DULL DULL, because I am just doing it in drop garter; does anyone know of any Bond lacy patterns that don`t require manipulation EVERY single row? I just picked up some Lilac Sachet Sonata, which looks like a really good color for DD, and would like to put it on the Bond, but I think a little manipulation every few rows or so would work well. Anyone?

To get a drop stich look just move one stich over to the next needle leave the needle in non working position for a few row then put it back in working position. This create little ladders and they can be quite cute.Another way is to do a lace border ( which often I do by hand) then place the knitting on the machine for the main body part and do random eyelets all over for a lacy look without all the work.
A lady named Mary Anne Oger publish a magazine called Knitwords for machine knitters, she has quite a few pattern for manual machine such as the bond. Her web site is www.knitwords.com. I hope this can help.
