Synopsis

She's already knitted "On and Over the Edge" - and now Nicky Epstein is going even further! Here, she shares more than 150 one-of-a-kind embellishments for any type of garment edging. With her signature inventiveness, Nicky provides an abundance of ideas and takes stitchers one step further. They range in difficulty level; some are simple but elegant, others complex and truly extraordinary. There's a bell-sleeve jacket with a Celtic knot closure, a stylish cable-hooded wrap that's textured with unusual patterns and bobbles and a Fair Isle coat with an unusual hem treatment and twisted cord embellishment. All are accompanied by detailed instructions and crisp colour photography.
