Bags that Rock
by Kelley Deal

Publisher Apple Press
Edition Paperback

Kelley Deal has two lives: as the lead guitarist of the band The Breeders, she spends late nights in the recording studio, long hours on the tour bus and evenings basking in bright stage lights. But she also has a passion for knitting – especially one-of-a-kind bags as unique as her music. Tag along with Kelley as she gives you a privileged backstage pass to her rock-n-roll world and her knitted bag obsession. Knitters of all skill levels will enjoy the invitation, because they’ll get to explore Kelley’s stylish choices of fibres and gear (needles, stitch holders) and get the lowdown on bag-specific features, including frames, straps and linings. Kelley walks them through all the basics, and twenty fabulous projects, each with its own ‘remix’ variation. Since they are all photographed in the studio, surrounded by instruments and equipment, you’ll feel as if you’re right there, one of the band. Kelley’s personal anecdotes and rock-star stories add to the fun.
