When J. Lo wears knit leg warmers in her "Flashdance TV" special, it's official - knitting has gone Hollywood. However, American knitting diva Suss Cousins already knew that. In this highly anticipated sequel to her 2002 release "Hollywood Knits", Cousins presents 30 chic, modern designs, along with just a little insider gossip about the stars who have made, bought or worn them. Knitters around the globe can now create those Lopez leg warmers as well as the ribbed cap donned by the sailors in the Russell Crowe film "Master and Commander", a funky purse with a big, bright red flower patch (tres Carrie Bradshaw), a pullover designed for Debra Messing to wear on "Will & Grace" and even his/her dog sweaters for hipster pooches. A passionate advocate of not only knitting but the good life in general, Cousins highlights her hospitality in "Hollywood Knits Style". She shows knitters how to throw the best parties (a mother-daughter brunch, wedding shower, or girls' night out, all with a knitting theme), start a knitting circle, even fund-raise through knitting. To enhance the knitting experience, Cousins shares her favorite recipes for entertaining and her creative techniques for decorating a room with yarn, plus lists her preferred mix of CDs to knit by. Every page of "Hollywood Knits Style" reflects Suss Cousins' special brand of joie de vivre.
