Review on ๐Ÿงต Enhanced Needlepoint Design Weaving by Kim Sanchez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great Charts

I searched Revain's used books department for patterns with charts that can be used for tessellation/intarsia/hank knitting, embroidery, cross stitch, embroidery and beadwork. My search is over. The subtitle of this book is "International Collection" and lives up to this moniker. The diagrams are intended for large and detailed projects and should be enlarged. They're easy to read, but I like the charts too big for my aging eyes. I think bead embroiderers will love some of these designs. They are complex, and some are quite complex. A total of 63 projects with accompanying diagrams. Not much basic information about stitches etc. It's just charts, charts, charts. . p. 33 Indian design p. 41 Design from Central and South America p. 33 53European design p. 79African design p. 121 Middle Eastern Designs p. 127Asian Design p. 157 Sources (this book was published in 1978 so I wouldn't rely on them. p177 Bibliography p178 My special thanks p179 Waiting to get started, haven't used them yet so can't comment on the lack of bugs, but they look good.
