Product Description
Look great without adding bulk.
The geniuses behind Big Girl Knits present 25 all-new curve-flattering projects that explore the beauty of color & texture.
Jillian Moreno and Amy R. Singer brought the average American woman—a size 14—a collection of stylish, flattering patterns in Big Girl Knits. Now they’re back with 25 new curve-friendly projects that embrace color and texture, plus adaptations to make almost any pattern suitable for all shapes and sizes.
Part knitting instruction book and part sassy style guide, More Big Girl Knits goes beyond teaching the basics—fit, proportion, motif placement, and balance principles—to tackle all-new methods for creating knitwear with brilliant colors and sumptuous textures that voluptuous women can wear with pride. The second half of the book features attractive patterns, from jackets to sexy tank tops that are proportioned to fit and shaped to create a fetching silhouette. Packed with tips and tricks on what to avoid, what to embrace, and how to modify any design to flatter your body, this smart guide will show Big Girls how to look gorgeous in colorful, texture-rich knitwear.

Great Book May 9, 2008
I liked the first book and found this to be an excellent followup. I'm a novice knitter so I still have a learning curve, but this book has excellent pictures and a nice variety of patterns. The book is written in a fun style with a humorous approach.
Even better than the first one. May 6, 2008
This book is even better than the first one if that's possible. The sweaters etc. are very pretty and stylish. Their writing is very humorous and kept me laughing as I enjoyed looking over the patterns. I highly recommend it.
 Great book for curvy knitters May 5, 2008

Great patterns and great information. I have a feeling there will be some errata published for this, but that is not different than any other knitting book. If you fit the target market, it is a must have.

Hot damn, I love these patterns! I've still got a huge stash of yarn set aside for the first book and I'm going to add to the pile to do as many of the patterns as possible from this one! Even when I wasn't heavy, I was a "big girl", with a lot of curves. These patterns are flattering and are a lot of fun to knit. The directions on different shaping methods and the body types the patterns are designed for are very well written with a great sense of humor. Don't stop now! I'll buy the next book too!
