Book Review: Heirloom Knitting

Heirloom Knitting by Sharon Miller

This book is a true classic of lace knitting, and with good reason. It's chock-full of useful, interesting information about Shetland lace knitting, in addition to the patterns. I kind of skimmed over the sections on wool, but was pleased to see that it had information on other fibers as well. Lots of fun lace patterns--projects as well as motifs--and help for creating one's own. I can't wait to knit some of the patterns from this book. I love lace!

I was amused by your comment in Announcements re: permanent accounts. You said you'd have to decide between a permanent account and interchangeable knitting needles. :-P I can relate!

We have some similar interests...may I add you as a friend? I am new to InsaneJournal (ran away from LiveJournal) and don't have many.

Certainly! I'll add you back. I'm still fairly new myself and I love making new friends here.
