The Winds of War by
Herman Wouk - From the siege of
Warsaw to the attack on Pearl Harbour, the
tragedy is recreated, also the folly that tore
nations and their people apart. Two American
families whose lives are interwoven in a common
cause, and produce a saga of love, ambition,
loyalties and danger. Standard version paperback
in fairly good condition. Cover shows wear on
this one, pages are clean and crisp, being such
a thick pb the spine has loosened somewhat, but
all pages are present and attached to binding. A
good reading copy that sounds worse than it is.

Using ten chic garments and more than 150 stunning sample swatches as examples, she covers the top techniques for turning wool yarn into vibrant and dense textures. Before and after shots show how different fabrics react to the process, and there are patterns, stitches, and techniques for lace, mosaics, cables, plaids, checks, and quilting.
