Knitting, Beading and Stitching for the slightly sinister.

By Renee Rigdon and Zabet Stewart

Finally, a book of alternative craft projects for those wanting to create something a little different.

Welcome to the darker side of craft, with a selection of quirky knitting, beading and sewing projects. Not just an instructional book, Anticraft comes with tips and down to earth, witty information.

All the projects are by 19 very unique designers, each with their own bio so you can learn a bit more about them.

The writer’s say:

“If you would describe your favourite crafts as supercute – no let us rephrase: If the idea of handcrafting the most nauseatingly adorable plush bunny you’ve ever seen, sets your heart atwitter – gently set this book back on the shelf and slowly walk away!”

I have to agree, these crafty ideas are out of the norm, and deliciously twisted. If you are a beginner you can learn basic knitting and crotchet stitches.

So if you are wondering just what you can learn to make – think black netted gloves, a crotchet “I [Skull] trouble” tote and sultry knitted knee high stockings complete with snake design.

Edgy and unusual craft fans will love this one.
