Simple garments and accessories for everyday life. Knitters love lace and want to add it to their wardrobe in pretty yet non-fussy ways. In this collection of 18 garments and accessories; using lace motifs for edging is only the beginning. Author Heather Zoppetti shows how lace can be easily incorporated into feminine garments meant for daily wear: as a simple panel insert; as edgings and bands; and in an increasingly all-over manner. Simple shaping and construction are the rule here; letting lace take center stage. Heathers work features thoughtful construction such as linen-stitch bands to prevent awkward stretching and shoulder slippage; mock cables to play up a raglan shoulder; and reversible stitch patterns on garments that show both sides. Hidden among the collection of lovely garments is a thorough introduction to the basics of lace knitting; including various cast-ons and bind-offs appropriate for lace knitting. Throughout the book; Heather offers tips designed to help the novice knitter.
