Beautiful Lace Galore
I have made 3 fabulous shawls from this book and have ear-marked another 4 or 5 to make in the future. If you are an experienced knitter, jump in. The instructions are dense which means I usually have to write them out on larger paper and keep track of where I am very carefully. Get out your chart paper and stitch markers and the results of your efforts will be well worth it. All of the patterns I have worked with have been accurate and the shawls are masterpieces. Pick an easy one to start and then tackle some of the lace weight shawls. You will really be knitting your family an heirloom for years to come.
