Long Description:
Romantic knits can be flirtatious and flattering. The focus of this show is on soft, feminine styles incorporating lace techniques or luxury yarns. First, Eunny has an introduction to doily style knitting-those delicate and charming designs that are most recognizable on tablecloths and coasters, but can also be incorporated into knitwear. Next, Kristin Omdahl demonstrates the Summer Night's Shawl, a luxury lace-weight garment that uses two yarns to create an ethereal-quality fabric that is ultra-light and drapes beautifully. Then, Kristin joins Marcy for the Chain Reaction Afghan crochet-along, looking at some of the squares that involve crochet lace techniques with a variety of stitches, including chain stitches and Kristin's innovative X-stitch. Finally, Eunny offers a quick tip on managing double, triple, and even quadruple increases.
