Knitting Books

Bestselling author Cathy Carron gives the cowl her visionary treatment yet again with her hotly anticipated Cowl Girls 2. The 35 fresh designs in this book offer an impressive range of styles that remain cohesive as a collection yet appealing to a wide audience. Colorwork, beading, shaping, cables, textures, embellishments, and other techniques will catch the eye and hearts of every knitter and fashionista.

Forget tired scarves and bulky turtlenecks—funky, chunky, hip and happening cowls are where it's at!

Following up her hit book Hattitude, author and designer Cathy Carron weaves a fashion statement that puts in-the-know women head and shoulders above the rest. Among the more than 40 patterns provided here are a cozy neck wrap featuring a built-in iPod holder, a lacy drawstring hood, and a woven necklace sparkling with Swarovski crystals.

From Flat to Fabulous - A Step-by-Step Guide

Astute owls, feisty fighting fish, and adorable turtles are just a few of the many animals knitters will delight in constructing from this book of addictive projects. Knit a Square, Create a Cuddly Creature offers more than 35 knitted animals to make from step-by-step instructions. With Epstein's fresh approach to stuffed animals, all knitters need to do is knit a square (often with color work or quirky techniques), sew the square into the designated shape, and stuff it! Fun and easy-to-make embellishments add rich detail and character to each animal.
