Knyppelboken - Tradition och eget skapande - Ulla Fagerlin, Birgitta Hulterstrom, Kirstina Malmberg

ISBN-13: 9153411005

Knyppelboken - Tradition och eget skapande by Ulla Fagerlin, Birgitta Hulterstrom, Kirstina Malmberg
Lace book - it's tradition and creation

The book does contain the pattern for lace shown on the front cover along with both standard patterns and pictoral patterns.

What works well?

There are technique lists (in Swedish) on how to approach each pattern
Some of the diagrams are multicoloured using the standard colours for stitches

Anything that we need to take into consideration?

Whilst this book is in Swedish this should not prove an issue for those who do not speak Swedish, check out my post on translations

I'm the lace bee and these are my books

With currently over 400 books and about the same number of individual patterns, I have an enviable library. So here are some of my books.

You can see all of the titles by opening up the archives or by clicking on the categories which I've used to group by authors, language and lace types. Want to find a particular book? Scroll to the top of the page, click on the magnifier glass and type in a title or author.

I am very grateful to the lace gumnuts of Australia for permission to quote and link their reviews to this site.
