Lace Knitting

This comprehensive book contains a brief history of lace knitting and considers the similarities between the genre from different traditions. There is information on techniques, with more than 70 lace motifs and embellishments including making bobbles, beading, and how to create the Estonian Nupp. While using traditional motifs, Lace Knitting moves away from the traditional square shawls of the past and focuses on wedding wraps, scarves, and throws. It includes seven straightforward, but effective projects, all of which can be varied and made more or less complex by the knitter.
