Knitgrrl 2 has even more fun patterns and activities for knitters of all ages. You’ll love the beaded jewelry chapter (so many possibilities!), the so-cool-it’s-hot tank top, the no-worries sweater pattern anyone can knit…and that’s just the beginning. Of course, dozens of simple step-by-step photos are still included, with extra new techniques for you to learn. Knitgrrl appeared on the New York Public Library’s 2006 Books for the Teen Age list, a list of titles recommended by librarians for younger audiences, and also received a starred review from Booklist. Knitgrrl 2 was nominated for a CraftTrends Award of Creative Excellence in December 2006. Both Knitgrrl books are designed to teach beginning knitters and feature colorful illustrations by Canadian illustrator and webcomic artist Kathleen Jacques.
