Product Description
From Booklist
A lovely addition to Interweave's Style series, this collection of beautiful lace patterns will appeal to knitters interested in lacework regardless of skill level. Projects range in size and complexity--small to large, socks to sweaters. Unlike many pattern books that provide only one or two pictures of each project, projects in this collection of modern knits designed by 18 fiber artists are illustrated with multiple color pictures photographed from many angles, including several close-up images that highlight project details, giving readers a wonderful sense of what the garment looks like from all sides. In the "Design Notebook" section, the authors break down the components of lacework stitch by stitch, explaining how yarn overs and decrease combine to create holes of various sizes. Illustrations and photographs are useful for explaining concepts and techniques so readers can better understand the structure of the projects as well as design their own lace patterns. A useful reference for a technique that intimidates many knitters. Jennifer Palmer
