Victorian Lace Today
by Jane Sowerby
|
Part project book and part history lesson, this unmatched collection of lace patterns
offers techniques for embellishment and edging to shawls and scarves. The 40 projects
are deciphered, rewritten, charted, and adapted for modern tools and fibers, and are
presented with full-color photos and illustrations of both the works-in-progress and
the finished items. Comprehensive information on the tools and techniques of lace
knitting helps beginning knitters, and challenging patterns keep experienced and
ambitious knitters engaged. Delicate and decorative, the historical lace patterns
in this book are adventurous and dynamic.
