About this ebook
The New York Times–bestselling author of Stitch ’n Bitch helps you take your knitting to the next level with advanced techniques and forty-one new patterns!
In Stitch ’n Bitch Superstar Knitting Debbie Stoller teaches the full array of advanced knitting techniques and skills, such as double-knitting, knitting lace, complicated color work, beading, and more. With the same clear instruction and fierce attitude that got her dubbed a “knitting superstar” by the San Francisco Chronicle, 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.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I love Stoller's books, They are written and illustrated in ways that make sense to me and, as a primarily self-taught knitter, that's been hugely helpful. In this one she covers knitting with color, cabling and lace using the same witty conversational tone she's used in all of her Stitch 'N Bitch books. She manages to demystify the techniques and lingo enough to convince me that I want to try all of these techniques and that, furthermore, I'll be succesful at doing so.
