Knitstrips: The World's First Comic-Strip Knitting Book (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781419740664)

The world's first comic-strip knitting book, Knitstrips presents 22 original patterns, boundless humor, and seriously appealing knitting instruction.

Inspired, original, and laugh-out-loud funny, Alice Ormsbee Beltran and Karen Kim Mar's Knitstrips are patterns and knitting instruction mixed with advice and humorous commentary--and presented in illustrated, full-color comic book panels by artists Michele Phillips and Laura Irrgang. Launched in 2016 on the mega-popular knitting site Modern Daily Knitting, the strips gained instant popularity and have attracted thousands of avid fans.

The book includes 22 original patterns and is designed to mimic a bound collection of comic books in a series: each "issue" with its own cover and wry theme--from yarn stashes to binge knitting--that is close to the heart of knitters. Issues offer four to six knitting patterns each, plus designer highlights and a variety of stories and technical discussions. The result is a fresh, lively knitting adventure that is like nothing the fiber world has seen before.
