    Are these patterns to be published in a book? I never buy kits, but would buy a book which included these patterns, they are a lovely collection.

    I didn’t like the Shetland Crescent by looking at the picture on your blog, but looked it up on Ravelry and just had to put it in my queue 🙂

    Wonderfull, the 2012 lace-collection is mindblowing… Monique’s design “Shetland Bound” is the finest. Empress of Lace ought te be replaced with the “Goddess of Lace” (or somewhat bigger yet…) Mind you: she learned the trick by trial and error, with no help whatsoever…
