22654 "Bernd Kestler's Easiest Lace Knitting -

This book teaches lace knitting by Bernd Kestler. 

Also known as "lace crochet," it features elegant patterns created by combining yarn overs and decreases.

 Compared to lace crochet with a crochet hook, Kestler's lace knitting primarily uses needles sized 3 to 5, making it easier to work with. 

This technique can be applied to shawls and lightweight scarves, and because lace knitting is suitable for both summer and winter yarns, it can be used year-round.

The new lace knitting patterns are neither too delicate nor too chunky, offering a refreshing take with 55 designs that cater to both beginners and advanced knitters.]

 Another highlight is Kestler's skill in color combinations; he incorporates unique and colorful color schemes. 

Traditionally, lace is mostly made in solid colors like white or black, but this book utilizes gradient yarns and vibrant colors, allowing for a wide range of applications in various projects.
