This page coincides with the current knitting revival, which sees the
craft booming in popularity and even experiencing celebrity status with
many of Hollywood's superstars, both male and female, turning to
knitting needles in their spare time. Hailed as the new yoga, knitting
is perfect to combat stressful urban lifestyles and helps us to return
to simplicity.

Cross old-school prep with nouveau riche and you're in for one hot summer.
Teva Durham takes Fair lsle for a walk on the wild side with a leopard
print border (gray and black spots are worked in duplicate stitch) and
an edgy textured rib pattern on the bodice. Knit it in Skacel
Collection's "Samoa".
Sexy yet sophisticated, Charlotte Quiggle's simple seed-stitch shell is
the ultimate wear-with-anything wardrobe basic. It works up quickly in
GGH/Muench Yarns' "Goa".
Cut to hug every curve, Debbie Bliss's tiny-cable tennis sweater is
game for anything. The yarn is her own "Cotton Cashmere", distributed
by KFI.
