Go beyond the Basics
by Debbie Stoller
Knitters: It's time to take it to the next level. And who better than Debbie Stoller to show you how. The expert knitter and gifted, edgy author now shows her readers how to do more—lots more.
Stitch 'n Bitch Superstar Knitting is the only knitter's handbook to teach the full array of advanced knitting techniques and skills, such as double-knitting, knitting lace, color work, beading, and more. Writing with the clarity that makes her such an effective teacher, Stoller explains how to "knit by the numbers;" get creative with stripes; embellish with crochet, beading, and I-cords; how to make cable patterns; and how to use color forms. There's also a tutorial on creating your own knitting patterns.
And then the icing on the cake—41 cool, funky, and fabulous patterns from Debbie and the Stitch 'n Bitch community: a fluttery Rococco Shawl, Cap Sleeve Lattice Sweater, Jackie-O sequined cardigan, Empire Strikes Back dress, the adorable Button It children's sweater with changeable animal patches. Plus sexy stockings, stylish handbags, blankets, scarves, and more, all photographed in full-color.

Received my order so quickly
Ordered 2 books the same day from 2 different companies. Still waiting for other book and if handknitting.com would have had the second book I would have ordered both from them. Thank you for providing a great service.
