Company Description
"You don't need to be a movie star or have a platinum CD to wear these fabulous fashions. All you need is a copy of 'Rock Gods & Movie Stars' and some Colinette 'Point Five' or 'Tagliatelli'. This knitwear is easy, quick-knitting (or crocheting), and some of it is even -- dare we say -- sexy! You may find yourself fending off the paparazzi or wondering where your Oscar invite is!"
Notes
  • Instructions use UK abbreviations, significantly important for crocheters

  • Pattern calls for metric needle 12mm; closest US equivalent is #17/12.75mm
