"The renaissance in knitting, inspired in part by the emergence of novelty yarns, has produced chic accessories and garments, including jazzy scarves, funky hats, and stylish tops, many of which can be seen in leading fashion magazines and found in high-end boutiques. Because they're fun, hip, and very forgiving, novelty yarns are frequently the fiber of choice among novice knitters, as they can make even a beginner look like a pro. Sassy, extravagant, and trendy, novelty fibers such as Eyelash, Fuzz, Fur, Ribbon, Metallic, and Multi-strand yarns can add accent, texture, and sparkle to virtually any knitting project.
Yummy Yarns teaches the craft of knitting more than twenty easy projects that feature novelty yarns in original patterns and variations. Chapters one and two discuss the characteristics and design possibilities of novelty yarns, and teach the essentials of knitting with easy-to-follow, step-by-step photographs. Start by knitting basic accessories, including spectacular scarves and embellishments for cuffs, collars, and gloves. Progress to projects that require simple shaping or are knit on circular needles like funky handbags and cool hats. Advance to more challenging (yet still manageable) patterns for stylish sweaters and sporty tops. Yummy Yarns shows knitters which novelty yarns to use - and how to use them - guaranteeing beautiful results."
