The best of science fiction and manga meets knitting. Joan of Dark offers up an out-of-this-world assortment of knitting nerdiness inside Knits for Nerds.
The patterns for 30 iconic clothing and accessory items inspired by popular TV shows, books, films, comics, and more – including Star Trek, Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, and Firefly – are presented alongside full-colour photographs showcasing completed projects, such as: Lieutenant Uhura's sexy Star Trek mini dress; Hobbit feet slippers; Firefly-inspired scarf, socks, hat, and jacket; Tank Girl socks; Hermione Granger's secret beaded bag; Manga-inspired leg warmers; Lord of the Rings'-inspired shrug. In addition to a wardrobe of costume finery, hobbyists will also find instructions for practical projects such as an e-reader cover or a laptop bag crafted of fabric that serves double-duty as a chessboard and carryall, as well as patterns for plush toys inspired by Star Trek and robots. Wear (and knit!) your nerdiness on your sleeve with Knits for Nerds.
