Synopsis
Feeling the itch to stitch and the urge to preserve? Well then, get your craft on with crafter-about-town Jazz Domino Holly. As the daughter of rock-royalty and founder of the Shoreditch Sisters Women's Institute, Jazz is the perfect guide.
Have fun and impress your friends and family with your crafting skills as you learn how to:
·Unravel the mystery of knits and purls and whip up a Girlie Bow Headband
·Fix your stitches and sew a string of Heart-Felt Bunting
·Feel the heat in the kitchen and bake a batch of Queen of Crafts Jam Tarts
·Preserve tradition and fill your empty jars with delicious Oh My Darling Clementine Marmalade
·Get green-fingered and plant a Herbal Tea Garden
·Become your own beauty expert and mix up a pot of Get Lippy Lip Balm
Jazz will show you how to make all these things and many, many more. You'll be hosting the perfect tea party, organising a bake-off and setting up your own knitting circle in no time (and having a lot of fun along the way).

'Ooh, crafty! Home-made Christmas pressies all round, we think,' Lucie Clifford, The Sun
'Knitting and wool in general are cooler and, yes, sexier than ever before,' Karen Dacre, Evening Standard
'The creative energy of punk legend Joe Strummer has filtered down to his daughter Jazz ... Holly is on a mission to encourage young, 21st–century women to take up bodkins, secateurs and pastry brushes and use them to help create empowered modern identities,' Helen Brown, The Daily Telegraph
'An empowered crafter ... Her crafts are always rebellious, unique, and fun,' Casey Krosser, Bust Magazine
