Lovely Lace Knits by Gabrielle Vezina
It will soon be fall, so new knitting patterns and yarns are showing up and so are some books. I decided to offer this one on lace knitting because, on the one hand it is knitting, but on the other it is lace knitting, that is, knitting with tiny holes to make patterns. So, you don't really want little holes in serious winter wear, but you can enjoy them in the fall.
The book explains the basics of lace knitting but presumes some skill. Almost all the patterns are marked intermediate and only 1 hat and matching mittens are advanced beginner. It offers 16 patterns: 2 sweaters, 2 tops, 4 scarves/shawls, 3 pairs of socks, and 2 hats, 1 scrunchie and 1 pair of mittens. The photography is beautiful as you can see, and the book offers exceptionally large and clear charts for the lace patterning.
You see here in green on the cover Pine Cone Sweater, then in Samara Cardigan in a greyed rose holding 2 yarns together, one of them mohair blend, Winter Wheat Scarf, and the Amarelle Sweater in blue with plenty of bobbles. The Solstice Top in yellow is a nice transitional piece in wool, and the Soft Breeze Shawl in mottled pinks and greens.
