Gorgeous knitwear--that does good, too! The knitting community has always come together to support a great cause, and Knit Red once again attests to knitters' generous, giving spirit. These 30 beautiful red-themed projects help raise awareness of the number-one killer of women today: heart disease. The patterns are all donated by top designers, including Debbie Stoller, Nicky Epstein, Debbie Bliss, Norah Gaughan,Deborah Newton, Melissa Morgan-Oakes, Iris Schreier, JaredFlood, and Ysolda Teague. In addition, the book offers important medical information, a Heart Healthy Resources and Action Plan, and powerful stories from survivors of this deadly ailment.
Laura Zander is the founder of the online superstore jimmybeanswool.com and an avid knitter who has partnered with the Heart Truth Foundation to raise awareness and money to fight the No. 1 killer of women.
