Handcrafted Rugs by Sandra Hurby is available brand new in amazon for £6.
Is not a book that brought much to m,e as I found it more of a resume of Classics I reviewed earlier in this blog.
I particularly disliked the section Tufted rugs as the title presumes more advance forms of doing the tufting which I quite much enjoy as the tufts are smaller, the back of the rug looks tighter and there is no need to cut the yarn in small pieces. The tufting I am making mention is like this,
However the author left it out. The tufting she is making reference is like this,
This book privileges design, colors choice and dying of fabrics and yarns and succinctly summarizes different types of handcrafted rugs.Is affordable and a great gift to teenagers and people who want to learn the basics without much dwelling into more sophisticated techniques.
Until next time,
Best wishes,
Ariane
