150 designs for interesting edgings, from lacy trims to appliqus, braids and fringes. The main directory is organised by type of trim, from lacy edgings and beaded braids to fringes and insertions. Each design is graded according to level of skill required (many require patience rather than skill!) and features clear instructions (with charts in some cases) - cross-referenced to a step-by-step stitch guide - with beautifully photographed swatches. Each section includes a simple and stylish project demonstrating decorative ways in which to utilize the trims, from scarves to bags, fashion extras to home accessories. Book Contents: Introduction, Before you begin, Directory of trims, Technical data, Technique refresher course, Index and credits Lesley Stanfield is a long-time hand-knitting designer and has been the knitting editor of several women's magazines.
