Hello all- My favorite knitting blog, Mason Dixon Knitting, has been promoting a new book on knitting lace and today posted links to 8 videos: www.masondixonknitting.com/knit-lace-8-clear-easy-videos/ <http://www.masondixonknitting.com/knit-lace-8-clear-easy-videos/>
No connections, etc. Just love the variety of material here - and started checking this website instead of the news last thing each day. Much more satisfying! "Some days, we pass along a tip or hack or technique. Today is not one of those days. Today we present a spectacular bounty-a cornucopia, a veritable smorgasbord-of wisdom. Lace knitting just got a lot easier. The eight quick videos listed below come straight from the brainiac mind of Jen Arnall-Culliford, the teacher who has given us so much knowledge with her three books, A Year of Techniques <https://www.masondixonknitting.com/shop/a-year-of-techniques/> , Something New to Learn About Cables <https://www.masondixonknitting.com/shop/something-new-learn/> , and now Something New to Learn About Lace <https://www.masondixonknitting.com/shop/something-new-learn-lace/> . In these short videos, Jen manages to teach even old dogs like us new tricks. Click the tutorial name below to see each tutorial. We hope you'll immerse yourself in these lessons. We wish we'd had Jen egging us on when we began our lace knitting odyssey."
