Deepen your knowledge of lace knitting in Estonia with Nancy Bush’s newest book, Knitted Lace of Estonia.
Learn about traditional lace-knitting techniques, such as:
- Traditional twig, peacock, and lily of the valley patterns and their variations
- Different ways to make the distinctive nupp, or subdued bobble
- Modern adaptations of the classic ways of constructing shawls and scarves and adding lace edges
Knitted Lace of Estonia includes dozens of Estonian, heirloom-quality lace patterns: scarves and shawls in square, rectangular, and triangular shapes; some with added edgings, some without. Plus, the book covers instructions for interchanging patterns and designing an Estonian-style shawl, stole or scarf from beginning to end. And, tips and techniques used in Estonia are included and augmented with expert advice from popular author Nancy Bush.
