Unique designs July 31, 2007
I took one of the square shawl patterns in this book and used it to make a triangular shawl. These patterns are unique and detailed. I've used other shawl patterns and none have had the detail of these. For experienced knitters with lots of time.
Fantastic Follow-up Book! November 3, 2006
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Marianne Kinzel has made a fantastic addition to her first book with "Second Book of Modern Lace Knitting". Like the first it is full of great patterns and stitches for lace knitters of an intermediate to advanced level. The patterns are flexible and while she has included great detail this is not the type of book for knitters that need everything written out line by line along with their charts. A beautiful reference book, the only thing that could make it better would be colour printing.
 Classic lace patterns for tablecloths or shawls August 6, 2005
15 out of 15 found this review helpful
This second book of Modern Lace Knitting is great for the experienced lace knitter. I found the patterns in her first book more appealing and pretty, however these patterns are also excellent. The lace patterns are classic and are written for tablecloths and runners, however they work up very well in lace yarn for shawls or ponchos with few modifications. If you are not experienced with lace I would recommend Lavish Lace by Noble and Potter.
Exquisite lace knitting July 1, 2005
9 out of 9 found this review helpful
This book is a continuation of "First Book of Modern Lace Knitting" and if anything the designs are even more exquisite than they were in the first book. Neither is for the beginner but any lace knitter will enjoy the book which has the most wonderful all lace tablecloths and household linen.
The book is a joy to look at and read and the instructions are clear and well presented.
The most beautiful lace knitting you'll ever see March 5, 2001

These patterns are collected from vintage knitting from over the years, and they are the best of the best. This book has a Rose pattern that looks great knitting up in wool yarn for a shawl, as well as in thinner cotton for a table cloth. This book isn't really suitable for a beginner; if you are new to lace knitting, I recommend Martha Waterman's book first, then move on to this one.These lace patterns make great baby christening blankets for an important gift, or a wedding shawl. If you make a tablecloth, you can take a simple cardboard decorators table, drape it with a plain round of colored or neutral polished cotton and then put a handknitted tablecloth on it and have an accent piece that is incredibly beautiful (a decorator table has a cross-base and round top made of particle board or cardboard. You can put a glass round on top, but it isn't necessary. They are very inexpensive.) This is especially nice if you have Victorian or country decor.
