A classic
and best-selling book, first published over 10 years
ago, The Step-by-Step Encyclopedia of Needlecraft is
to be fully revised and re-issued in a new and expanded
edition. A comprehensive step-by-step sewing section
joins highly illustrated chapters on knitting, crochet,
embroidery, needlepoint, patchwork, quilting, and rug-making,
and there will be more than 50 exciting things to make
– all laid out in an eye-catching photographic
gallery of projects at the beginning of the book.
Needlecrafters around the world have justly praised
the original book for its easy-to-follow instructional
photographs and the comprehensiveness of its techniques.
In fact, more than 300,000 copies have been sold. Recently,
legions of new recruits have been seen to be taking
up traditional handicrafts such as knitting. The New
Step-by-Step Encyclopedia of Needlecraft is certain
to be this new generation’s guide to creating
exciting garments and household furnishings, particularly
as it now features patterns from top designers in the
various fields.
No matter the level of expertise – from complete
novice to experienced needleworker – the step-by-step
photographic guidance contained in the book will make
