Woohoo to punky craft books! For the little anarchist in your life, that just happens to enjoy knitting, Pretty in Punk is a great find.

This book has helpful instructions, fun photos of the finished products, and a great punk-graphic approach to the lay out. But the projects, obviously, are what really make this book a winner. From skull arm warmers to felted anarchist messenger bags, there is a great variety of knitted projects that don’t rely on loving scarves only.

It’s officially November. Put this book on your holiday shopping list now. Oy!
