Debbie does crochet! Debbie Stoller, the "knitting superstar", has been leading an entire movement of hip young knitters with her New York Times bestseller Stitch 'n Bitch and its follow-up, Stitch 'n Bitch Nation, together with over 521,000 copies in print. But guess what? For every one knitter in the world there are three crocheters-which translates into millions of hip, crafty, 18- to 35-year-olds ready to be happy hookers with Stitch 'n Bitch attitude, sexiness, ingenuity, and cool. Written in the author's cheeky style, this heavily illustrated book-featuring four-color photographs and instructional illustrations throughout-is chock-full of instruction, inspiration, and to-die-for designs, from skull potholders to a lacy evening wrap. For knitters and new crafters exploring the hook comes the primer: the advantages of crochet and the ways in which knitters (and nonknitters) benefit by learning this sister craft; a discussion of tools; all the cool yarns available, and what the different gauges mean; plus basic techniques and stitch patterns-including the chain stitch, picot, flowers, filet crochet, changing yarns, and finishing. Then come 40 fabulous, funky projects-the kind that make Stitch 'n Bitch rule-for crocheters: Pom Pom Capelet, Retro Clutch Purse, Anarchy Irony Hat, Doris Daymat, Animal I-Pod Cozies, These ain't your grandma's doilies.
