Knitting Lace

“Whether you are a first time lace knitter, or a seasoned expert, you’ll enjoy the timeless beauty of knitting lace.—Kathleen Cubley, Learn to Knit Lace: Free Knitted Lace Patterns + Instructions

Whether simple or complex, knit in chunky yarn or gossamer threads, lace always impresses. The patterns possible by combining positive and negative spaces are endless! Explore the many different articles we’ve gathered on the topic of lace knitting to learn the essential techniques of knitting lace: reading charts, fixing mistakes, and joining a new yarn ball.

We’ll recommend lace patterns to inspire you, including lace hats, beachy lace, and warm-weather garments. New to the world of handknit lace? Start with Heather Zoppetti’s basic workshop and then start learning about other lace traditions from around the world, from Russia to Estonia.

Discover the many tips, techniques, and tutorials we have here, then stop by the Interweave shop for even more knitting resources including videos, kits, books, ebooks, and magazines!


One of the best parts of my job as a video producer for Interweave is getting to know the instructors. And by know, I mean not simply sharing meals on sets and following their Instagram feeds. I mean becoming friends with them, going to their house, and shoving knitting to one side of the couch so that I can sit and pet their cat. I mean exchanging recipes and gossip, and trading cakes for garden produce. I mean being able to make fun of someone to her face, while deeply respecting and loving the person she is.
