The Press Says...
NY Times BOOKS OF STYLE:
“Fast Women Knit And Bad Girls Purl”
‘The (Domiknitrix) book also includes lovely practical garments — sleek zippered sweater coats, frisky hoodies and cleavage-baring vests and slinky tees that cling to the body’s curves. These are not your grandma’s afghans, she reminds her readers: ”Remember, tight sweaters save yarn!”‘
The Village Voice’s Lusty Lady, Rachel Kramer-Bussel:
“Kinky Knitknacks: An old housewifes’ craft evolves into a tool of seduction”
“Stafford makes the very process of knitting sound like something all dirty girls should take up ASAP…. ‘I think it’s only natural that when you spend as much time on anything as I do knitting, you’ll fetishize it a bit.'”
Knitty:
“There is good how-to information (beyond knit and purl) increasing, decreasing, color knitting, and putting in zippers and pockets, all with crystal-clear close-up photography. The patterns are pretty tasty too, especially once out of the beginner projects. The women’s garments have interesting construction and shaping that makes for shapely fit. And really you can’t help but giggle imagining whipping your knitting into submission.”
Customers Say...
I recently came across Jennifer Stafford’s book while looking for new patterns that break away from conventional standards. I not only found what I was looking for but I love reading her book! The tone is conversational in explaining the technicalities of knitting so my mind didn’t wander. Since she had my complete attention I am actually getting the hang of advanced techniques (mirrored decreases, shaping, lace, working with color, DPN’s, etc.)which I previously wrote off as too advanced for my blood.

This is not your typical knitting book, in which you often feel as if your grandmother or some friendly older woman is teaching you how to knit. This is your friend, telling you not to screw it up (in the most loving terms, of course). I love the book’s attitude and approach to knitting. It’s attitude has definitely challenged me to try techniques and projects that I would have shied away from before. There are complete instructions with good illustrations for all the techniques used in the book. You can use this book as a novice or expert knitter and the projects are graded according to skill level.

Whilst the traditional knitter may find the presentational style of this book a little “surprising”, if you take the time to read it you will find that this is actually a top quality book about producing really beautiful and PROPERLEY FITTED knitwear. The range of patterns included is wide, and the author has explained each and every technique used so even the novice knitter will be able to “whip up” something to be proud of. All in all great fun, clear instructions, and a great change from saggy baggy sweaters! Plus the PVC-esque cover is very practical if you spill your cuppa on it.

This book is amazing, hands down. Not only are the designs fresh and fun, but the chapters in the beginning are dedicated to teaching the beginner knitter how to knit and do all the techniques used in the book. The binding is also wonderful. It opens with ease, so you don’t have to use two heavy objects to keep it open while you’re doing a project.
