Review
“”Knitted Lace” will be a favorite book this fall on the shelves of lace knitters who enjoy a variety of stitches.” – “The Detroit News” “It’s a great collection…And convenient to have them all in one place.” – “KnittingScholar.com” “Gorgeous Collection…If you’re just starting to get the hang of lace knitting, don’t fear this book. “Knitted Lace” features stunning patterns for all skill levels – from beginner to advance.” – “FaveCrafts.com” “All of the patterns in this book have been in “Interweave Knits” or “Knitscene” magazine, but most of the lace knitters I know won’t care. The obsessive lace knitters I know base their magazine purchases or subscriptions on how many lace projects are in an issue of a magazine, and they’ll be happy to have them in one spot, rather than various magazines. This collection of lace patterns is mostly fine lace designs. Sweaters, shawls, socks and scarves designed by lace luminaries Evelyn Clark, Nancy Bush, Kat Coyle and Anne Ha As you would expect from Interweave, this collection features patterns from wonderful designers such as Evelyn A Clark, Annie Modesitt, Connie Chang Chinchio and Nancy Bush. Not only are there some beautiful shawls and scarves, but also cardigans and even lacy stockings. If you’re not a lace knitter already, this stunning collection will convert you.-Knit Now
