Learn to Knit Lace features three great patterns, a cowl-neck summer top with a lacy bottom half, a shawl with a beautiful lily of the valley design, and a non-lacy lace pillowcase edging. The pillowcase edging might seem a bit old school and girly girly, but the pattern, designed by Amy Polcyn, looks clean and contemporary, not something at which a guy would roll his eyes.
I bought a new set of sheets last month and am thinking I might smarten them up a bit by knitting some Lace Linen Trim, a handy take-along project on car trips or while waiting at the DMV (because you know how long that can take).
If you love to knit like I do, and are up for a bit of a challenge, you should enjoy Learn to Knit Lace. It is currently available as a free download at the Love of Knitting website.

I remember being taught to knit in Camp Fire Girls but I really messed it up and never tried again. I admire people that knit and crochet!
ReplyDeleteHey, it's never too late to learn. I only started knitting a few years and taught myself how to crochet last year.
DeleteWish I were a crafty person.
ReplyDeleteI find that we all express ourselves creatively in many different ways: cooking, woodwork, decorating, etc. God gifts us all differently.
DeleteBeautiful! There are some fantastic knit and crochet items at the fair. Did you put anything in the fair?
ReplyDeleteIt didn't even occur to me to enter anything into the fair:(
