Review by School Library Journal Review

Gr 6 Up-Fiber craft books written for young people often avoid the more technical stuff. Not so here-these are more like textbooks, with strong images and lots of space dedicated to basic techniques, eight to 16 simple projects, and plenty of opportunity to get comfortable with tools, notation, and terminology. Machine and hand sewing, knitting flat and in the round, wet and dry felting, pressing, and gathering are all covered. In addition, best practices, which, as experienced makers know, add time and complexity to a project, are included and will help guarantee professional-looking results. VERDICT- Crafters will be ready to read and follow almost any pattern or set of instructions after working through these books. © Copyright 2018.
