Negative Positive
Title: Pretty but tiny and not very instructive
Review: This book has beautiful pictures and would be great for someone who is already a very proficient spinner and is just looking for interesting ideas. But for an almost $40 price tag, I expect a lot more detailed instructions, including pictures of each step, rather than just the finished piece. The introduction seems to be geared to beginners, but it contains no basic spinning instructions and very little explanation of the author's techniques. The book itself is very small, making some of the text difficult to read. Spinning books are difficult to review, as it's the sort of very visual and tactile art that really needs to be a video or in-person class, but if you're interested in art yarns, get this one from the library. Don't bother buying new.
