In "Knit Kimono Too," best-selling author and knitwear designer Vicki Square returns with more than 20 brand-new Asian-inspired designs that flatter all body types. You'll discover garments including tops, tunics, and vests that blend traditional inspiration with projects that contemporary knitters can't resist. Knit Kimono Too focuses on lighter weight knits for layering, plus unique stitch patterns, colorwork, and openwork designs, in addition to innovative shaping, interesting closures and edgings, and clever knitting techniques.

Vicki also demonstrates the special techniques and stitches that make these garments so elegantly wearable, including two-color slip stitch, surface embroidery, two-hand stranded colorwork, garter-stitch shortrows, attaching knitted cord, making origami folds, double knitting, and more.
