This ain't your Grandma's knitting show! Knitty Gritty, a new how-to series for the DIY Network, presents fun and fabulous ideas for creative knitters, from beginners to advanced. The series debuts this July on DIY and is hosted by Vickie Howell - a young, hip crafter with a passion for knitting. In each episode, knitting experts will join Vickie as she takes viewers through projects such as baby "Ugg" boots, a groovy guitar strap, and even a bag knit from recycled plastic grocery bags. Since knitting is such a popular social activity, "knitsters" also join Vickie in the episodes and tackle the featured project. More than just informational, this fun and creative series will appeal to knitters across the board.

Domestic doyenne Martha Stewart leads her audience through various how-to segments on such topics as scrapbooking, handmade gifts, glittering, framing and decoupage.
