"What do you see when you imagine a wolf? Sharp, pointy teeth? Big, hungry eyes? A soft sweater and a friendly smile? Wait a minute! The wolf in this story would rather knit than huff, puff, or blow anyone's house down. But that doesn't stop the townsfolk from crying wolf anyway. What's a kind-hearted wolf to do when everyone keeps running and screaming at 'Hello'? It's time to show the world that this wolf is the furthest thing from Big and Bad"--Provided by publisher.

"The future was once a beckoning landscape where technology would make all things possible and provide for a near-perfect life. Space travel! Robot maids! Personal jetpacks! Mind-controlling ray guns! Pac-Man! Sadly, apart from video games this future never quite materialized, but memories of it still linger in popular culture. Knits of Tomorrow celebrates this ideal world-that-never-was, along with past and present technological wonders, and will appeal to any techno-geek today or to those who knit for them. Knits of Tomorrow features a range of projects, all with a technological bent. The book starts with a section on the basics of knitting and then has 20 original and creative projects. They are mostly quick and simple-toys, accessories, and home de;cor items such as rocket ship desk caddies, circuit-board scarves, and a Space Invaders pillow. There are practical projects as well-tablet covers, laptop bags, and iPod cozies. While playful and fun, the projects are primarily aimed at an adult audience, albeit one with a taste for sci-fi, Dr. Who, video games, and electronic gizmos past and present."--.
