Bestselling author Nicky Epstein creates a garden of knitted flowers sure to charm her legion of fans.
Nicky Epstein is a “rock star” of knitting who has earned nationwide recognition for her innovative and distinctive work. Her books Knitting on the Edge and Knitting Over the Edge are both bestsellers, and her many collections of Barbie™ Doll knitwear have proven enormously popular. Here, Nicky knits up a garden of colorful and whimsical flowers to adorn clothes, shoes, pillows, bags—almost anything at all. These pretty blossoms range from ruffled roses to lazy daisies, from single blooms to complete bouquets, from layered petal varieties to scalloped and corkscrew styles. Some are made of soft, sensuous felt; others showcase sparkling, eye-catching gold lamé. With Epstein’s detailed instructions and the breathtaking images, knitters will find completing these projects a pleasure.
