Review

"'A beautiful book that samples the best of both traditional and contemporary lace knitting; it is a collection of patterns from a number of sources and includes biographies of the designers and a snippet of prose for each pattern. It is good to see lace patterns in a variety of yarns, both chunky and fine. All designs are charted with some suitable for beginners and others very much for the experienced lace knitter. This would make a delightful present for someone special or for yourself.' SlipKnot, Knitting & Crochet Guild, Sept '04"


Product Description

Collected from knitting designers all over the world, the patterns in this guide will be a joy to create for any knitter.

With beautiful photographs of these unique patterns, this knitting book is perfect for those who love to knit lace and those who would love to learn.

5.0étoiles sur 5 As much a rebutal as a review, Fév 9 2001
Par K. Doughty "Kathy in S.B." (Santa Barbara, Ca. USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: A Gathering of Lace (Hardcover)
I have to differ with the previous reviewer on a number of points. I'm a knitter of over 15 years experience, both for my own pleasure and for others on a commision basis. The size of my knitting library is the bane of husband's existence. This book is, without a doubt, one of the most delightful I have ever purchased. There are at least 5 projects that I am rumaging through my yarn stash to start. The photography (by Alexis Xenakis of Knitter's Magazine fame)manages to be both beautiful enough to be called art, and illustative enough to be a real aid in knitting the project.

Projects range from beginner's projects with instructions that are extremely user-friendly and will help the knitter enter into lace knitting with confidence to more advanced projects that will provide the more advanced knitter with a happy challenge (due to their intricate nature, *not* due to difficulties in the instructions, which seem very clear and complete, including charting).

As for lack of originality: did you see that coracle!!!! (Yes, a knitted boat). Or the hat. Or the beauty of so many of the projects compared to the rather humdrum offerings that are being called lace knitting today.

Definitely a book that deserves to be in your library, if only for inspiration (though there are some smaller projects such as gloves, hats, and purses that even the most time-challenged person can squeeze in). It's taken up semi-permanent residence on my night-table.

5.0étoiles sur 5 So much lace, so little time, Déc 30 2002
Par "arana8" (Albuquerque, NM United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
This review is from: A Gathering of Lace (Hardcover)
I have knitted only one project from this book (the Faroese shawl) and it went really well. There is a typo in the directions, but it is easy to catch (chart goes to 198 rows, written direction say to knit to 129). The beginning/finishing techniques needed were all in the book. Many blocking techniques to choose from.
This is eye candy of the first order. I am sure I have spent as many hours looking at this book as I spent knitting my one lace shawl.
One thing. I design my own things, and I like to do lace. I want to knit a lace garment that is shaped, which is to say, the hips decrease to waist and the waist increases to bust (or vice-versa for knitting from the top). With all these brilliant lace knitters, couldn't one of them have developed a shaped lace garment? There is a lace sweater done with short rows into a kind of crazy-quilt sampler of lace, but how about shaping with short rows in pattern in an unobtrusive way?
