This new book displays Anniken Allis's supreme talent for stunning lace. There are 25 designs here separated according to skill level most are suitable for intermediate or advanced lace knitters. All are charted, but the charts are very large and clear. Photo tutorials explain a range of techniques, such as provisional invisible and circular cast-ons, adding beads and the Russian sewn cast-offs. The range of projects includes triangular and cresent shawls, as you'd expect along with retangular wraps and circular half-circle and square shawls. There is a beautifully draping waistcoat, a bolero, cowls and mitts. 'Janey' is a lovely cardigan with beaded lace panels along the front openings and a wide lace panel up the centre back, while 'Helena' is a spectacular Pi shawl with a knitted-on beaded edging. A selection of pattern s have lace worked on both right-and wrong-side rows. It's hard to pick favourite designs from this book, as all of them are genuinely stunning and will delight lace fans. * Knitter, The * Anniken was brought up in Norway and learnt to knit from her mum.
