The first and only book in the world on knitting Penza lace shawls!
Folk crafts are a huge and important part of the cultural heritage of any nation. In our country, various types of painting, wood carving are known and loved, and, of course, everyone is familiar with the Orenburg downy shawl, which has become the hallmark of our country. But many crafts do not survive to this day, masters pass away without having time to pass on the secrets of ancient craftsmanship to our contemporaries. And only enthusiasts are ready to explore, revive and preserve the secrets of ancient Russian crafts, such as the Penza lace shawl. Once the works of Penza masters resounded at exhibitions all over the world, but now they are not even remembered in Penza itself!
In her new book, the wonderful Russian master Svetlana Loginova, the author of two bestsellers about the Orenburg downy shawl, undertook to reveal all the secrets of this almost forgotten ancient craft! And before us, the Penza shawl appears not only in the rules, principles, and techniques of knitting, a certain set of beautiful ornaments and subtleties of preparation and selection of yarn, but also in real works of knitting art! You will be able to reproduce any product that Penza craftswomen once knitted, according to clear and detailed instructions, clear diagrams, and numerous tips in the book!
With this book, you also have the opportunity to uncover all the secrets of this ancient craftsmanship!
"I am convinced that Penza shawls are a unique cultural phenomenon. Now they are knitted by literally a few people, simply because there is no one to teach, to tell, although copies of such shawls are still kept in families. It is very important to remember our traditions and tell people about this beauty!" - Svetlana Loginova
