REDONDO BEACH, CA, July 15, 2009 /Fashion PR News/ -- Stylistas across the Internet are not letting the economy keep them from looking fabulous. They're learning how to make fashionable hand-crochet clothes and accessories on their own with help from the online DIY show Double Stitch: It's Not Your Grandma's Crochet.
Double Stitch: It's Not Your Grandma's Crochet stars identical twin sisters, Erika & Monika Simmons aka the "Double Stitch Twins." Each month these award-winning hand-crochet fashion designers teach Double Stitch: It's Not Your Grandma's Crochet viewers how to "incorporate crochet into their everyday" by making their own stylish head gear, remixed skirts, cuff bracelets, body wraps, belts, jewelry and more.
The sisters describe their look as "sophistafunky," a fusion of sophisticated lines and funky execution. Their versatile crochet designs are created with multiple use in mind. All that is needed is yarn, a crochet hook and your imagination to dress up an outfit or to add a little pizzazz to casual attire with the easy-to-make projects demonstrated on Double Stitch: It's Not Your Grandma's Crochet.
Erika & Monika Simmons are also authors of the bestselling crochet pattern book: Double Stitch - Designs for the Crochet Fashionista (Interweave Press). The book was featured in the December 2008 issue of Ebony magazine as a "must-give" Christmas gift.
