Geek knits : over 30 projects for fantasy fanatics, science fiction fiends, and knitting nerds / Joan of Dark aka Toni Carr ; photographs by Kyle Cassidy.
"Are you ready to embrace your inner geek? This fun and fashionable compendium of knitting patterns definitely leans toward the Dark Side--but who says the Dark Side can't be chic and colorful, too? With projects ranging from easy to advanced, there's something here for everyone: sci-fi geeks, dice rollers, and fantasy enthusiasts alike. And if you're less into the culture and just need something unique to hold your comic book collection, author Joan of Dark has that covered, too. Inside you'll find fun and funky projects modeled by some very familiar faces, including René Auberjonois of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and his Blue Box Scarf, John Carpenter and his Asylum Comic Book Cover, and George R. R. Martin with his trusty knitted Dire Wolf! Whether you consider yourself aligned with the Chaotic Good or take a more Neutral Evil approach to life (and knitting), Geek Knits has everything you need to dress the part"--Provided by publisher.
A collection of over thirty knitting patterns inspired by popular science fiction and fantasy culture includes designs for the scarf worn by Darcy in Thor, muggle inspired sweater, and six-sided dice pillows.
