Following the same format as the original Stitch ‘n Bitch handbook, Stitch ‘n Bitch Extreme has six chapters of instructions in new techniques, including "knitting by the numbers," how to make your own designs, knitting lace, embellishing, and advanced skills in using colour. The book should carry the label, "Warning: Contains Explicit Instructions" because Stoller's step-by-step directions are models of clarity according to reviewers who say "the only book that really teaches you to knit" or "crystal clear!...you really can learn from her books" The second half of the book features 41 hip patterns use the techniques taught earlier. They include a mesh lace skirt, a Jackie O sequined cardigan, an Empire Strikes Back Dress, Wolford-like wool stockings, a kid's Tiger Lily toy, a fertility blanket, and a cable dog sweater-all with full-colour photography, charts, and schematics.
