Congratulations to Deb!
Summer just seems like a really great time for knitting lace. There’s something about all those eyelets that make them perfect for warm days, whether you’re using lace knit items or knitting them during the summer months.
This week I’m giving away a great book full of lace knitting patterns you can make and use throughout the year: Romi Hill’s New Lace Knitting.
This book is lovely, with a lot of fun-looking patterns, some of which have just enough lace to make them interesting but not so much that you feel like you’ll be working on the same project forever.
If you’d like a chance to win this book, leave a comment on this post before the end of the day Sunday, May 15. I’d love to know about your experience with lace knitting or what you like to knit when the weather gets warm.
Thanks for visiting, commenting and sharing, and good luck!

I have knit lace before in the sense that it has been in the form of shawls. It is not complicated the patterns I have. I have not knit with lace yarn but heavier yarn for the lace patterns. SO I am not well versed in it.
Alicia Perez says
I am looking forward to tackling my first lace project.
i have always been intimidated by it but vowed that this is the year I give it a go.
Liz says

latanya t says
Lace knitting is new to me.
Peggy R says
I’ve knit a couple of sweaters, but my passion is shawls. After falling in love with the sweater on the cover, it should give me the urge to go back to knitting sweaters again. Thank you for the giveaway!!
Helen King says
I have knit a few lace shawls and love it! This would be a wonderful book to win!
Susan Spiers says
I attempted to make a lace scarf, using a fine yarn, that also had a “fuzzy” outer layer. Couldn’t follow the lacy pattern, the fuzzies got in the way. Restarted about 6 times before giving up and changed yarns-result, a beautiful lace scarf for my sister.lol Thanks, great guveaway!
knittingdancer says
I love to knit lace. There are so many pretty patterns it would be hard to decide which one to knit first.
Kiri says
I have done some lace borders but haven’t had the chance to tackle a larger project yet. I usually like small quick projects but this summer might be just the time to start a larger project with longer evenings relaxing with family.
Cindy says
Who doesn’t love new lace knitting books?
Heidi Kirsch says
I love knitting lace. After I learned that its a lot of knit 2 togethers, yarnovers, and the best part-every other row is just purl stitches to seal the deal, it made this girly-girly just giggle.
Heather Oliver says
I love lacy knits for summer. I am always looking for lightweight knit tops and this book would be great to add to my collection. Thank you for the giveaway. 🙂
sally h says
Love lace knitting . I am always looking for new patterns.
toowellred says
I would love to learn lace knitting!
Bobbi says
I love lacy projects. I just finished knitting a shawl and am currently crocheting a long vest. For warmer weather, a light and lacy project is much more comfortable than a solid fabric, unless it’s a sock or blanket square.
That cover sweater is so pretty! I’m imagining it with a gauzy skirt for a nice dinner out with my honey.
Teresa says
I haven’t knit lace yet but I’m eager to try.
joyce hancock says

Iryna Boehland says
I love knitting lace! Made a few summer sweaters form my daughter and a shawls for myself.

I do knit a fair amount of lace, but haven’t ventured into any intricate designs. Just learning graph reading on patterns.
Margay says
Not a lot of experience with lace knitting, but I want to try some.

I was afraid of lace knitting but then took on a complicated lace sweater and loved it!
Martha says
I love knitting lace. Infact I am working on creating a all lace vest out of crochet cotton. I have my 4 lace patterns worked out. Just need to work on stitch counts and arm holes.
Karey says
I love lace knitting! It always looks so nice when finished!

P.J. Miller says
I’ve only knit one lace project–a red lacy bonnet for my granddaughter. I love the challenge and would love to receive this book to improve my skills.
Nancy says
Love knitting lace. The more intricate the better.
Connie Kline says
My lace knitting has so far been limited to wash cloths, but I’d love to knit something lacey for myself for summer.
Jeanne says
I was a member of Romi’s pins & lace club for a couple of years and really enjoyed the challenge her patterns present. I love to make lace tops for the summer, and have had my eye in this book since it was released.
MelodyJ says
I haven’t knit any lace yet. I like to knit my fall items during the summer.
Karen Wilson says
I have a little experience knitting lace and am working more and more with knitting lace.
Jennifer says
I love knitting lace! I can’t stand rows and rows of stockinette, so lace knitting is right up my alley 🙂
lindarumsey says
I love knitting little lace cardigans in the warm weather – you always need some sort of shoulder cover in the UK!
Sasha says
I love lace knitting! I seek out the most complicated patterns I can because they force me to focus on the stitches and forget about whatever might be bothering me that day.
Joy says
I just recently delved into the world of lace knitting and I’m really excited about this giveaway! In the summer I like knitting small things such as hats and slippers. I also like knitting with light weight yarns so I am still able to work on larger projects.
AdrienneF says
I enjoy lace knitting – as long as the lace part is on the small side. I haven’t tackled a “full” lace project. In summer I like to knit small things so they don’t sit on my lap – mitts, socks, small shawlettes, etc.
Sara says
I love adding lace to almost everything. It adds to the interest of the FO and adds interest to my knitting.
Stefanie A says
I am addicted to lace and Romi is one of my favourite designers. My fingers are crossed.
laineyhf says
I’ve done some very simple lace projects, I am looking forward to trying my hand at more complicated ones. The sweater on the cover is gorgeous, I can only imagine what is inside! Thank you for the opportunity!
Beth R says
I have knit lace before, mostly shawls, hats and scarves. In the summer I tend to use lighter weight yarns with more cotton, silk or linen content. I knit a large rectangular lace shawl in 100 percent cotton fingering as a summer project.
asteride says
I love knitting lace and I made an Hitofude summer jacket last year that made me really happy. For this summer I could knit an Echo’s Flower shawl!
Carmen N says
I haven’t done a lot of lace knitting yet; I like working with lace, but sometimes it’s hard to keep counting properly with a little one in the house.
Denyalle says
Don’t have much experience knitting lace, but I have lots of experience pinning the patterns!
Carolyn Morrissey says
I love Romi’s patterns. I’ve been eyeing this book since it was published. Full of beautiful pieces.
karen powell says
Love lacey things… I am a newbee knitter and tried one lace pattern and could not tell what my stitches were and laughed at myself…. I am trying to learn more about it and practicing, have downloaded some tutorials off craftsy and other blogs to learn. it is so pretty and delicate looking, so baroque… I want a shawl that is lacey with beads for the summer…. have lots saved on ravelry..lol
