The Knitster: 20 Patterns for Hip Knitters
Are you a knitter by nature? Do you automatically think of making things in terms of stockinette or garter stitch, the number of stitches you need per inch, and what you currently have in your yarn stash? Then The Knitster by Robbie Dulaney is definitely a book for your crafting shelf. This spiral-bound volume contains 20 different patterns to make all sorts of knitted goodies for your everyday life, including an Ice-Cream Cosy, a Snowl (a kind of snood/cowl hybrid), and a cute design for making your own knitted Friendship Bracelets. It also includes pointers for doing your own yarn-bombing experiments, how to make your own multi-coloured pompoms, and how to create an interesting backdrop for not-so-pretty photo locations using contrasting yarns from your stash. Take a look at this clever crafting book at the library this summer.
