Join the movement! Four million strong and counting, hip,
young chicks with sticks are putting a whole new spin on
knitting--while turning last fall's Stitch 'n Bitch: The
Knitter's Handbook into a surprise national bestseller (from
The New York Times to the L.A. Times to BookSense) with
215,000 copies in print. So influential is the book that the
number of Stitch 'n Bitch knitting groups tripled in the
past six months--spawning a Stitch 'n Bitch
Nation.
Written by Stitch 'n Bitch author Debbie
Stoller, Stitch 'n Bitch Nation features 50 hip, new, even
funkier and more fabulous patterns by Stitch 'n Bitch
designers, who come from San Francisco to Brooklyn, Chicago
to Cambridge to St. Paul, Minnesota. The Om Yoga Mat Bag.
Felted Monster Slippers. The London Calling Union Jack
Sweater, because even punks get cold in winter. A
Double-Duty Shrug. Polka Dot Tankini. That '70s Poncho. The
Boob Tube. Spiderweb Capelet, Cabled Newsboy Cap, Chunky
Baby Booties and Baby Bunny Hat. And the most ingenious
project, a Knit-Your-Own Rock Star doll--with a choice of
Joey Ramone or Henry Rollins. All designs are complete with
full-color photographs and step-by-step instructions, and
are made from sexy, contemporary yarns, including
multicolored angora, alpaca, lace, and mohair. Includes the
best tips, shortcuts, and techniques from Stitch 'n
Bitchers, profiles of knitters and their groups, and a
how-to refresher on all the stitches used in the book.
