Extreme Craft

Designers showed homespun knits ranging from sweet (Prada's black knit dress), to psychedelic (Alice Temperley's harrowing-acid-trip poncho), to surreal (Rubecksen Yamanaka's 1920s-inspired dress reads: "Why Not?").

If your love for craft transcends yarn, be sure to catch the second episode of Craft Corner Deathmatch, where a pair of do-it-yourselfers face off--like Iron Chef but with glue-guns and pipe cleaners--tonight on Style Network. The winner battles a Martha Stewart stylist. Watch in awe as they fashion windchimes and ultra-customize a pair of jeans. Let's hope there's plenty of puffy ink and a Bedazzler on hand.
