Lion Brand Notebook ®
Earlier this year Lion Brand unveiled The 7 Wonders of The World — a series of sculptures designed by fiber artist Nathan Vincent. Not only did each sculpture represent one of the 7 Wonders in yarn techniques, but we presented a fashion show where each technique was reflected in a variety of fashions. In the last post in this series we visited embellishments and their importance to knitting, crochet, and yarncrafting in general. Today we present part five: “Lace.”

The Leaning Tower of Pisa (or just The Tower of Pisa) is our fifth Wonder of the Yarn World. Its openwork architecture, patterned with open holes, mimics a lace pattern. Chosen to represent combinations of open spaces and texture-formed designs, you’ll find that the patterns associated with this line are bold, yet elegant and detailed. Boasting charming colorways, two-way ribbing and simplicity – these pieces are well-suited to the yarncrafter who’s looking to spin lace in an unconventional way. The yarns featured include Homespun, Heartland, Amazing®, Pound of Love®, Unique, Vanna’s Glamour® Below we’ve chosen several of the striking designs from the lace collection from our fashion show. In the coming weeks we’ll feature the remaining two of the 7 Wonders of the Yarn World — from lace to granny squares to modern color work, you’re sure to find inspiration in this amazing collection. |
