Published by Van Nostrand Reinhold Co, New York, NY, 1976. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardbound. No DJ. Size 4to (up to 12'' tall). Condition: Nr Fine. 131 Pgs. ISBN 0442222386. LCCN 75-3860. Flip through the 44 color pages in this book, getting acquainted with the author's needlepoint. Each of her designs is a symphony of subtle shadings and textures of wool, cotton, silk, linen, rayon, or polyester yarns. Think of this book as 20 needlepoint kits in one - each of the graphs for the 20 original designs is reproduced in color; each accompanied by a color key to specific yarns and yarn numbers, as well as by a stitch diagram for every stitch in the pattern. Since the stitches are drawn just as they appear on the canvas, you can learn new stitches and the variations of old ones as you work the design. Description text copyright 2010 BooksForComfort.
