In Classic Knitted Cotton
Second Edition
Rediscover the satisfaction of creating accessories for your home. This book illustrates the full potential of knitted textiles through the delicate beauty of white cotton knitting. The collection of one hundred patterns includes easy to follow patterns for soft furnishings and gift ideas of all kinds, to suit both traditional, and modern decors.
Beginners will find items that they can tackle with ease, while expert knitters will be able to exercise their abilities with the larger, more complex pieces. The patterns have been collected from many sources, some dating back 150 years. Lace knitting is a creative craft, easy to learn, which requires the minimum of equipment - two basic stitches, a set of needles and a ball of cotton.
How you use the designs is up to you - you can follow them as set, or experiment with different weights of thread and needles of different sizes to add your personal touch and create a unique family heirloom.
