/24-7PressRelease/ - LITTLE ROCK, AR, July 30, 2008 - The knitted lace-themed sweaters in Deborah Newton's newest knit Leisure Arts book, Knits to be Noticed, are sure to focus covetous eyes right on you...
Lacy eyelets in unexpected spots. Curvy cables all around. Zigzag panels up and down. The rich details in these ten terrific sweaters definitely make them knits to be noticed. All the designs are the work of Deborah Newton, who is well known in fashion circles for her finesse with knitwear. "I wanted the sweaters to be fairly easy to knit, but still have interesting details that would make them interesting to make and to wear," she told our editors.
Each of the luxurious sweaters in this collection reflects Deborah's fascination with intricate details combined with her love of classic simplicity. The designs include: Classic Lace Pullover, Cable and Lace Pullover (off the shoulder), Basketweave Raglan Pullover (turtleneck), Lace Garter Stitch Pullover, Lace and Eyelet Vest, Lace Bolero, Vintage-Feel Cardigan Blouse, Lace and Texture Cardigan, Hooded Lace Jacket (Deborah's favorite), and a Drawstring Cardigan.
A longtime resident of Providence, Rhode Island, Deborah has been a professional knitwear designer since 1980. Her work has appeared in Vogue Knitting, McCall's Needlework & Crafts, Knitters Magazine, Threads, and other major publications. More of her stylish fashions can also be found in her first Leisure Arts book—Options: Sweaters.
