Chic Knits for Day and Night

When you see glamour, you know it. Whether it's a woman's perfectly tailored clothing, her expertly chosen accessories, or just something about the way she carries herself, true glam is unmistakable. Glam Knits showcases 26 totally glam designs, all knit with decadent luxe yarns. Whether you choose to knit a sinfully soft cashmere cardigan, a sparkling silk cami or an eye-catching metallic dress, you'll be the walking definition of glamour when you wear your finished creation. And don't forget to knit that special finishing touch. The Glam Knits collection is rounded out with stylish accent pieces like a lacy scarf and a pair of handbags to complete your look.

In this follow up to her best-selling Fitted Knits, Stefanie Japel's trademark top-down construction makes the patterns easy to tailor for a perfect fit. All of the patterns are given from extra small to extra large - plus instructions in the front of the book walk you through the ins and outs of modifying a pattern for further easy customization. Go ahead, knit glam. You deserve it.
