Lace Style

"Ooh-la-la—lots of lacy stuff here, from socks to dresses, cuffs to shawls. Some have just a bit of lace, others are nothing but lace."—The News & Observer

"A cornucopia of lace knitting. 21 patterns range from just a touch of lace to smothered in lace, all lovely and feminine. My favorite part of the book, as in all of the Interweave "Style" series, is the Design Notebook. This one is a fat 24 pages of how, why and when of lace, including fixing mistakes and incorporating lace into your own designs."
—Knitty.com

"Lace Style gives us beautiful, wearable garments from several popular designers. I was delighted with the wide variety of garments and expertise levels presented." —All Info About Knitting.com

About Lace Style

Traditional to Innovative: 21 Inspired Designs to Knit

by Pam Allen and Ann Budd
Editors of Interweave Knits

From runways to department stores, lace is everywhere and knitters are picking up their needles to chase the trend. Lace Style takes a fresh approach to this classic theme by combining solid techniques with 20+ contemporary projects.


Lily of the Valley - The lily of the valley pattern Nancy Bush used in this shawl is a traditional but enduringly popular motif that originated in Estonia.


Following the success of Scarf Style and
Wrap Style—with more than 100,000 copies sold— we’ve selected a stunning collection of quick knits that take a modern twist on a traditional pattern. Accomplished designers including Vëronik Avery, Norah Gaughan, Annie Modesitt, Shirley Paden and Michele Rose Orne will inspire with patterns ranging from scarves, shawls, hats, sweaters, dresses, and more.

Revel in ways to use lace as allover patterns, trims and edgings, and inserts. Innovative designs include a lace pattern typically used for baby wear boldly translated into a striking woman’s scalloped jacket, a delicate lace edging used to accent a featherlight lingerie dress, a chic skirt made lacy with intentionally dropped stitches, a wide-brim garden hat with a decidedly vintage feel, a sophisticated bracelet knitted from fine silver wire, and much more.

Each pattern has detailed step-by-step instructions and lavish lifestyle photographs with plenty of detail shots to keep readers inspired. A special design chapter demystifies the elements of knitted lace, and details several ways to achieve lacy effects. It also provides key pointers on how to incorporate lace motifs into other patterns and tips to ensure success.

Whether you’re an experienced knitter looking for inspiration or a beginner trying lace knitting for the first time, Lace Style has everything you need to knit lace with confidence.
