SynopsisMore than 40 projects included in this book are perfect for people who want to knit something a bit exotic but can't devote hours on end to completing it. To make these stunning and chic fashion accessories, you'll combine innovative techniques and today's luxury yarns., Cashmere, mohair, angora, sequin, eyelash fringe, and faux fur: these are the most luxurious and expensive yarns, often too costly to use for a knitting project of any great size. But these 35 breathtaking items are small enough that knitters can afford to indulge in the finest materials, and easy enough for beginners to complete with ease. Thumb through the exquisite photos of each specialty yarn, complete with descriptive introductions to its unique qualities and advice on how to work with and care for it. Follow the short and simple instructions to make a long scarf with boucl trim, a snazzy flapper-style hat from a mohair-silk blend, and the ultimate pashmina shawl.Each item is dramatic and unique. Both authors live in White Plains, NY., Knitting may very well be the perfect creative endeavor. Not only does a beautiful, handcrafted garment emerge from "two sticks and some string," the very act itself is wonderful for reducing the stress of the pressure-filled modern life. But in this fast-paced, competitive world, who has the time to knit? You do! Whether you find yourself on the bus, in a doctor's office, or on the sidelines of a soccer game, knitting on the go is a great way to make use of your time and your talents. Exquisite Little Knits presents more than 40 original designs for fabulous scarves, hats, purses, and other essential items that you can knit wherever life takes you. Best of all, very little fancy stitchwork is needed to create these luxurious, contemporary designs. Instead, innovative techniques and distinctive yarsn elevate the projects to an entirely new level.
