This lace technique book is so much more than a project book! In it, you’ll learn about block profile drafts and how to design your own lace patterns, whether you are using simple pick-up or many shafts. You’ll discover special warping, weaving, and finishing techniques to use with linen, lace’s most elegant partner. You’ll find out how to design and weave “turned” lace and discover the difference between Swedish lace and Atwater-Bronson lace. You can start with a sampler and then move through the projects; each one will add a new tool to your lace-weave design kit.
