Item# 4

Here is a beautiful small lace piece in the shape of a leaf of the majestic Oak tree. This project is rated as "mindful knitting", i.e. it will take careful attention as there is little repetitiveness to the rows. But otherwise the knitter familiar with basic lace knitting can expect to have a fun knit with this pattern (and probably will not want to stop at making just one). We've seen these oak leaf medallions used in a variety of ways: small doilies, coasters, tasseled bookmarks, fall holiday decorations and appliqué embellishments. For what will you use yours?

Dainty Victorian-style arm lace set the fingertips free. Terzetto Lace Mitts are named for the threesome of lace stitch patterns used in their design. Let this trio of lace stitches sing to you while knitting and wearing these elegant near elbow-length fingerless gloves.

These delightful fingerless gloves keep wrists and hands warm. The tapered fit, DK weight yarn and an easy-to-read lace stitch pattern make these simple and quick to knit. For symmetry, instructions are provided for making the left and right a mirror of each other.

Beaded shamrocks dance about your legs in these green-on-green socks to celebrate good luck and laughter in the Irish tradition.

This kit includes

• printed pattern instructions
• all the high quality yarns and beads you need to knit a pair of Frolicking Shamrocks Socks as shown
• a nylon collapsing eye needle to help you easily string the beads onto the yarn

The yarn is 4 oz (2 skeins) of Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sock in color Sage. The beads are the Miyuki brand, in color Emerald AB, manufactured in Japan with consistently high quality that will not abrade the thread and the finish will not rub off.

Tea-time Serviette gives double meaning to tea time. After knitting the lace, dye it with tea for a vintage look. Then add the pretty lace napkin to your tea service for a nostalgic setting.

This design features a petit scalloped edging, optional beaded cast on, circular knitting from outer edge to center to create a square that lies flat, and tea dyeing.

Snow is beautiful, especially when you can stay warm and cuddly indoors while knitting snowflakes. This small snowflake medallion starts at the center and grows in lacy rounds until completed with a free-form lace bind off technique.
