It has a nice variety of patterns and uses both beads and lace in different ways, which is fun. If you're new to the idea of adding beads to lace, this book is a great place to start, too, because of the well-organized projects. Start at the beginning and pick something that doesn't have beads all over it, and you'll soon have the confidence to knit some of the bigger projects."--Sarah White"About.com" (06/26/2015) "Author Anniken Allis has created a delightful book of 25 knitted items that cover all levels of knitters....Even a beginner can easily follow along and expand their knitting skill set. What I love most about the book...is that she has rated each pattern by complexity, not skill level. She doesn't want to scare you away from any piece, and I find that wonderfully refreshing!"--Karen Whooley"KRW Knitwear Studio" (06/24/2015) "If you have been wanting to knit beaded lace but are like me--a bit too intimidated--I highly recommend this book.
