Very Easy Guide to Lace Knitting: Step-By-Step Techniques, Easy-to-Follow Stitch Patterns and Projects to Get You Started - Tapa blanda

If you love knitting lace or have never done it and want to, this is the book for you. It has excellent photos of lace pattens together with written and charted instructions. It also has good techniques, finishing and the projects are very good. Projects are mainly for women with a couple of baby and child projects. I liked them all. I also like the way that Lynne shows a variation of the pattern with another yarn. A lovely book and the lace patterns are most useful for my own designs. --Karenplatt.co.uk
