Hollywood Knits: With 30 Original Suss Designs

Description

Knitting is undergoing a stylish renaissance, thanks in part to the inspiration and creativity of knitter-to-the-stars Suss Cousins. Suss has invented a new vocabulary for an old art and in the process developed a passionate following of young, hip knitters, including some of Hollywood’s hottest stars. Rose McGowan, Julia Sweeney, Laurence Fishburne and Bill Cosby count among her celebrity students and customers. Her designs have been worn on Friends, Frasier and many movies and other TV shows. Bringing her ideas to a book for the first time, Suss invites knitters new and accomplished to make offbeat and colourful projects that are both elegant and wearable. Thirty projects with complete step-by-step instructions and illustrations are featured in “Hollywood Knits”, from adorable hats and scarves to gorgeous sweaters, throws and even a cell phone holder, happily modeled by icons of Hollywood chic. “Hollywood Knits” closes with a resource guide that lists where you can buy quality yarns and Suss designs nationwide.
