Kaffe Fassett's Glorious Color for Needlepoint and Knitting

Kaffe Fassett's Glorious Color for Needlepoint and Knitting Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Synopsis:

"Fassett has firmly established himself as the single most exciting craft-and-color expert today."--Booklist. For knitting and needlepoint that explode with a riot of color and pattern, nothing beats these brilliant projects. But, this is more than a simple collection of eye-grabbing costumes and tapestries to make--it's a lesson in style by a truly original and fearless designer who doesn't hesitate to go gloriously over the top. And, that makes these brilliant photographs of objects that inspired his work--which range from small Oriental sculptures to London's stone walls--almost as much fun to look at as the projects are to do. Compare luminous blue-and-green Persian pots with a similarly shaded blue patch crewneck--and then knit the sweater yourself, either using the given colors or choosing other, equally rich tones that suit your own wardrobe.
