Elegance at the tip of your needles!

Cables and lace are special enough by themselves, but there is something graceful, even magical, about combining the two. Refined Knits concentrates on these two techniques, along with incredibly unique Aran Lace which combines the two, and the results are sure to impress.

   • Enduring Cables: discover cable-work with interesting structure in its details
   • Graceful Lace: explore the delicate sophistication of open-work
   • Elegant Aran Lace: combine lace and cables in unexpected and stunning ways
Knitwear designer Jennifer guides you through knitting these timeless, classic techniques, resulting in finished garments and accessories with a decidedly modern feel you'll treasure for years to come.

"The patterns are comprehensive, including written and charted instructions, schematics, and notes on construction as needed. Many of the accessories will find an audience with confident beginners." --Library Journal

"This book's beauty made me gasp... Jennifer's garments frame the face, flatter the torso, and add an elegant note to the wardrobe." --Knitting Daily
