Trianglepoint From Persian Pavilions to Op Art with One Stitch

Trianglepoint From Persian Pavilions to Op Art with One Stitch by Sherlee Lantz. Published by Viking Press, NY, 1976. 1st Edition. Hardbound. Paper DJ. Size 4to. Condition: Fine in Chipped DJ. ISBN 0670730300. LCCN 76-3550. This book introduces an entirely new, speedy way of applying yarn to canvas, requiring no expertise, complicated diagrams, counting, or instructions. It is as easy to learn as it is to work. Many designs in this book have been recycled from the sparkling surfaces of Islamic palaces and paintings, and from the clean, vibrant patterns in Western medieval illuminated manuscripts and mosaics. Because trianglepoint can be so rapidly executed and so easily rescaled, even the most impatient stitcher will be able to reproduce large-sized floor cushions, wall hangings, and table carpets, as well as more modestly sized articles. Illustrated with drawings, black and white and color photographs. 141 Pgs. Description text copyright 2002 www.BooksForComfort.com. Item ID 6202.
