This book will show you how to look at lace knitting in a whole new way – actually draping and designing a garment as you go. In some cases, Iris uses modular knitting and unique construction to give the lace a romantic flow over the body for incredibly figure-flattering shapes – don’t fear, schematics are included for all garments. This special construction can substitute for difficult lace patterns, making your garments look more intricately elaborate than they really are – what a wonderful illusion! Wraps, cardigans, tunics, shells and tanks, a sheath dress, skirt and hat let you play with Iris’s guided freestyle lace knitting techniques. The diagonal lines Iris incorporates show off hand-dyed yarns beautifully and are visually trimming since they direct the eye upward, resulting in a slimmer, proportionally pleasing look. For this reason, some of the garments are sized up to XX Large (bust 46” to 51”) since they are truly wearable and flattering for so many. Wearing these will make you feel floaty, flirty and romantic! 23 projects—144 pages | Softcover Item No. 30951 Retail: $19.95
