Elegant Couture Knitting Ladies Knit Wear for Autumn and Winter Vol 1 - Japanese Knitting Pattern Book Paperback – Big Book, January 1, 2014

Beautiful lace patterns I've not seen in any of my stitch pattern books, and I have several, including all the Harmony guides and Barbara Walker's. The instructional photos are of adequate size and excellent clarity. All the graphs are too, so even though I cannot read Japanese or simplified Chinese, I'm confident I'll be able to make any of the sweaters pictured by swatching first to familiarize myself with the stitch pattern and get my gauge for calculating yardage needed for my projects.
