Beschreibung

First Edition [1991], so stated. Very Good+ to Near Fine in Very Good DJ: The Book shows indications of careful use: light shelving wear along the bottom edge of the boards; the binding remains square and perfectly secure; the text is clean. Free of any ownership names, dates, addresses, notations, inscriptions, stamps, plates, or labels. A handsome, nearly-new copy, showing a single, very minor flaw. The DJ shows a bit of scuffing at the upper front panel, where a sticker has been removed; there is a small crack in the paper at the middle of the front hinge; the price has been covered with a not-unattractive distributor's sticker price at the lower inside front flap; else only mild rubbing. Overall, remains structurally sound and tightly bound, showing barely a hint of wear in a handsome, if imperfect, DJ: remains clean, sturdy, and quite presentable. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 4to. (11.1 x 8.9 x 0.75 inches). 144 pages. Profusely illustrated in color and black & white. Language: English. Weight: 1 pound, 15 ounces. Hobby Craft Series. Hardback with DJ. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 49374

Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe:

The author has investigated the development of textiles in Ireland and the result of her research is this collection of 24 hand-knitted designs, each inspired by a part of Ireland's history and culture. The designs include garments for men, women and children and even a bedspread created from a 19th century pattern. They range from easy knit to the more challenging. Each design has a short historical introduction, comprehensive knitting instructions, colour photographs of the garment, colour chart and the inspirational source behind the garment.
