The diagonal openwork stitch is a lace pattern with rows of slanting eyelets. It creates a lacy fabric with a nice geometric design. The pattern is made by shifting a similar lace row over one stitch, every other row, resulting in an offset diagonal stripe. This makes it relatively easy to knit once you get the hang of the repeat.
Use this stitch in a shawl, market bag, or lacy scarf.
I love this stitch !! Question; whats a peso?? on the first row u have a peso written in there ?
Johnny Vasquez says:
A peso is a form of currency in Mexico. It also happens to be what psso gets auto corrected to when we aren’t paying attention.

I wish you had a way for us to print out the instructions for the stitches.
Johnny Vasquez says:
We will, but for now your best option is copy and paste.

Do you an example of a finished piece in this stitch? I am in the process of trying to knit a shawl desihned by Dorothy Reade. It is beautiful but so complex that I am ready to give up. I am looking for a different pattern.
