<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><b>This book belongs in every knitter's library, an excellent lace knitting reference book with over 40 patterns and 30 projects to make</b>.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Everything you need to master lace and openwork knitting.</b> <p>The classic elegance of lace knitting is undeniably eye-catching--and daunting, at first glance! But now, Denise Samson, popular Scandinavian designer and author of <i>Ponchos to Knit</i> and <i>The Cable Knitter's Guide</i>, is back with an all-new helpful handbook perfect for crafters who want to take their knitting to the next level. Translated from the original Norwegian for the first time and adapted for an American knitting audience, with sample swatches photographed in full color and easy-to-read charts, this indispensable guide puts the beauty and intricacy of lace knitting and openwork at your fingertips.</p> <ul> <li>Dive into the history behind stunning lace knitting techniques.</li> <li>Review the fundamentals of chart-reading, blocking, and choosing your tools and materials.</li> <li>Discover 40 openwork patterns, introduced to you step-by-step.</li> <li>Explore full-color photographs, charts, and instructions that guide you from the deceptively simple to the beautifully intricate.</li> <li>Exercise your newfound mastery with 30 gorgeous designs for garments, accessories, and furnishings―from socks, scarves, and hats to napkins, pillows, and coverlets.</li> </ul><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><i>The Cable Knitter's Guide</b> is different in one way from many other how&#150to books: In the glossary section, rather than simply having definitions of the cables with a drawing or photo, the publisher has included QR codes. Aim your tablet or smartphone at the QR code, and it will take you to a silent YouTube video of the technique. You may find this fascinating and useful, or you may prefer old&#150school illustrations, but it's an interesting way to combine paper book "technology" with modern technology. --<b><i>Creative Knitting Magazine</b></i>--Denise Samson<br>
