Lacework for Adventurous Crocheters

This is a delicious book!  I’m a huge fan of Margaret Hubert’s.  She’s so talented and has authored quite a number of books dedicated to making all of us better crocheters.  The title here pretty much captures Hubert’s attitude about crochet – Adventurous.  (Keep reading for Giveaway details.)

We don’t often think of crochet in terms of lace.  Lace can be made with a variety of techniques with crochet being but one of those.  In this book, Hubert shows us how to use our hooks and thread (or yarn) to create her specialty, freeform, as well as traditional lace, Irish, and Bruges.  Freeform speaks to my soul in a special way.  It’s what I do when I’m unmotivated and have lots of partial skeins to play with, practice new stitches, and refresh old skills.  Irish lace is beautiful, a perennial favorite.  Bruges is one of my favorites to look at and play with.  I have yet to complete a project with it.

In this book, Hubert presents each technique with clear, concise instructions, exacting photography, and LARGE diagrams.  Large!  My aging eyes love that I don’t have to squint to see if my next stitch is a single crochet or a slip stitch!  Then, there are wonderful patterns to practice each technique.  If you get this book for only one thing – make it the Bruges Lace.  The Bruges Lace projects were designed by Tayana Mirer.  I’m going to check her out farther!  You’ll fall in love with her simply designed snowflake, Christmas tree, and the stunning Bruges Lace Shell, a design that will flatter any figure.

There is a lot of information stuffed into these 144 pages.  I can’t wait to try a bunch of these designs.  They are so yummy looking and so well presented that every crocheter using this book has a great opportunity to improve skills and attain success.  Get your hands on this one.  It’s a keeper!

    I love designing and making lace crocheted shawls with lace weight yarn. Lace trimmed baby clothes, socks, scarves, cowls and sweaters. I love all these items worked with lace-weight yarns. That is something that wasn’t done very much at all, until the 21century. I would love to have Margaret’s book, to learn more lace stitches.

    GeorgiaGayle 82052. I would make fancy leg warmers using recycled silk yarns. We need to keep our legs warm here in the mountains of Wyoming (especially this time of year!) and buying the silk mill-end yarn helps women in rural India (although, they probably don’t need leg warmers!). Thanks for the chance!

    I am making a sampler for my one year old grand niece. The original was made circa 1900 and the little girl who made it crocheted an edging and ran lace along the edge. I want to find a good lace edging to embellish mine. My version of the sampler in progress is on this page: http://theshopsampler.wordpress.com/2013/01/27/what-are-those-new-buttons-about/

    I’d love this book – I have only started dipping my toe into the waters of lace in the last year or so but am gently stretching and challenging myself to do more and better.

    If the overseas postage is an issue, I can certainly help out there.

    Hello! I’m Zoey and my zip code is 76137. I think this book would be fabulous to help with my fascination with lace trimmed handkerchiefs and doilies.. I’m still learning a lot about crochet and trying to perfect my stitches with each project. Crochet is such a beautiful and relaxing hobby. I hope I win but congratulate those that do. I’m sure they’ll create amazing things. Ciao.

  142. Wendy Foxx on February 27, 2013 9:21 am

    I am a huge fan of Margaret Huber. I love the lace look but am so intimidated with the lack of self esteem in this department. She is a wonderful instructor so hopefully she would be able to give me the push to get over the bump in the road. Thank you for this offer. I am from 73942.

  143. Deb E. on February 27, 2013 10:02 am

    Deb E., 91601, and I would love to make lace edging on my skirt and matching jacket sleeve lace edging. Trying to refresh my wardrobe and lace edging would be lovely and do just that.

    I would think some of these stitches would make a lovely tablecloth…I would also like to make a shawl…and a doily…maybe some coasters…and, well, you get the idea :) There are many projects that would look good with these stitches.

  146. Monica Foster on February 28, 2013 8:44 pm

    Hi I’m Monica at zip code 63559. It would be great to have a book of stitches that weren’t pineapples or spiderwebs. I make many scarves and have resorted to knitting to get the lacy effect. This book should have many crochet alternatives! Thanks
