Stitch 'n Bitch: The Knitter's Calendar

Description

The Stitch 'n Bitch Calendar is back with a lively year of knitting, wit, and attitude from "knitting superstar" Debbie Stoller, author of the bestselling Stitch 'n Bitch series. In full color, here's a wealth of material for chicks with sticks: helpful tips, cool techniques, and ingenious fixes. Yarns of the week, silk to alpaca to linen to mohair. Plus quotes, knit wit, encouragement, trivia- did you know that in the Peruvian Andes, knitting is traditionally a men's craft?- and, of course, lots of hip, edgy patterns, from snug scarves to bikinis to MP - player cozies. 320 loose sheets are printed in gorgeous colour, then boxed unbound in a plastic easel backer. Open the easel, and the backer becomes a self-standing display stand. To change the date, just lift off the the top page - which is now ready to stick in your knitting bag for inspiration.

Debbie Stoller, a "knitting superstar" (San Francisco Chronicle), is the best selling author of the Stitch 'n Bitch books. She comes from a long line of Dutch knitters, has a Ph.D from Yale in the psychology of women, and is the editor-in-chief of BUST magazine (www.bust.com).
