About this item
Teaches crafters how to make and use a gorgeous material for extra enjoyment in knitting, crocheting, and weaving: paper yarn.
“Ancient techniques for a contemporary application. A must have for every artist who works with paper. Informative and very inspirational!” --Anna van Bohemen, fiber artist
Explore Japanese paper yarn to add new dimensions to your favorite fiber crafts like knitting, crocheting, macrame, weaving, or mixed media. Textile artist Andra F. Stanton focuses you on a fresh perspective: crafting with paper yarn instead of expected yarns of wool or cotton.
• Beginning with its deep roots in Japan, learn about paper yarn's rich versatility.
• With simple instructions, make your own paper yarn from a sheet of kozo paper.
• Try 12 inspiring projects, from beginner-friendly pulped paper weaving to a more-experienced-level knitted scarf. Then you're ready to use paper yarn to take your own favorite crafts in new directions.
Throughout, enjoy photos of works by dozens of the contemporary artists who have brought paper yarn to the West's galleries and museums of the 21st century.
Whatever your crafting level, this is an accessible resource, blending history, instructions, and artistic inspiration. Elevate your making with the tranquility of a traditional process that is perfect for mindful crafting.
