French Girl Knits by Kristeen Griffin-Grimes

January 29, by Terrye. Leave a Comment

French Girl Knits, by Kristeen Griffin-Grimes (who just friended  me on facebook! How cool is that!!), known in the knit and crochet community for her pattern company, French Girl, utilizes inventive combinations of texture, color, and stitch patterns in her fashion-forward, seamless design work featured in her new book, French Girl Knits. 

French Girl Knits includes:

  • Classy, feminine designs fashioned in luxurious yarns that achieve suberb figure-flattering fit with seamless construction—the need for sewing has been eliminated with Kristeen’s one-piece designs.
  • Four thematic vignettes inspired by French daily life, film, and history: Enfant Sauvage (Wild Child), la Boutique Parisienne (A Vintage Dress Shop in Paris), Dans La Rue (Street Wear), and Creatrice (Creative Woman).
  • A design workshop featuring in-depth tutorials that teach seamless construction methods featured in French Girl Knits, providing valuable technical information for both beginning and seasoned knitters. You’ll learn how to design in a more organic way, either from the top down, from the hem up, from the back out, and by picking up live stitches when possible.

On her site, FrenchGirlKnits.com you can see Kristeen’s collections as well as her tours. She’s got a mailing list too! If you love these designs, be sure to head over to her site.

You can see a preview of this book and get your own copy on Interweave’s Site, here.
