Hey ho, it's been a busy ole time, what with festivities, workshops and other busyness. Now it's time to revive the Yarn of the Week tradition.
When all 20 shades of Debbie Bliss Rialto Lace turned up we oohed and aahed like never before. She certainly has excelled herself with the colour range and the accompanying book has got something for everyone, from the tentative beginner to the lace master.
Beginner - Skinny Scarf. Just one ball and a simple repeated pattern will get you practising lace and wearing your creation in no time.
Intermediate - Sideways knitted cardigan (pictured on the front of the book) - as the name suggests the main body of this garment is knitted sideways. The construction is very simple but gives the impression of being fitted.
More advanced - Bobble edged shrug - this garment, like the one before it, is knitted on 3mm needles, giving it great drape. Although the stitch is more complex, it's repeated all over and the design is simple, so it's still not too fiendish!
