You can count on envy when you show up in any of these sweaters from the world's top fashion designers - the best of 20 years of Vogue Knitting. With 45 patterns to choose from, you can knit a closetful of classics, from Adrienne Vittadini's oversized Argyle Cardigan to a softly elegant, loose-fitting Stitchwork Turtleneck from Perry Ellis, and from Missoni's color-rich one-piece T-Shirt Pullover to a gently flared Cable Tunic with the distinctive casual, relaxed DKNY style. Plus a selection of the best contemporary designer handknits, including the playful sophistication of Michael Simon's Gingerbread Cookie Cardigan and a chenille Cropped Striped Pullover that is signature Todd Oldham. Required skill levels range from very easy to expert, and each pattern lists its original and substitute yarns.
