COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Interesting Stitches and Techniques submitted by sara on July 23, 2015, 1:27pm The problem with this book is that it uses expensive "lux" fibers which are often discontinued. But, there are many new stitches and techniques in the book that could be adapted to other patterns and yarns. for example, a skirt that starts with see-through thin lace at the hem and progresses up to the waste with thicker yarns and tighter stitches.
