Sexy Little Knits 3/12/06

Sexy Little Knits from Amazon.comOkay, I admit, the cover of this book had me take a second glance. Ooh-la-la, what an adorable little pink knitted number! Sexy Little Knits: Chic Designs to Knit and Crochet by Ashley Paige is in a class of knitting books that are definitely not for your granny. Paige is a celebrity swimsuit designer who has had her flirty, fresh, and fun swimsuits grace the pages of Elle, Seventeen, InStyle, and the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue.

Sexy Little Knits is a collection of twenty-four patterns for fun summer pieces, from swimwear and tanks to dresses and shorts. The popular knit and crochet patterns combine sophisticated color and fun stitches with elegantly form-fitting shapes.

Each pattern is accompanied by clear instructions and helpful suggestions for customizing these designs with fun trims, clever color choices, options for more (or less) coverage, and creative stitch possibilities. Lushly photographed by fashion favorite Yu Tsai, Sexy Little Knits makes it easy to create a whole summer wardrobe at home or on the beach.
