I shouldn't really have this on my 'read' shelf. I carry it with me everywhere. Even now, when most of my books are in storage, I have it with me. I know I SHOULD read it. And yet it makes me nervous. It feels like a maths/science book. It's got graphs in it. So I'm too scared to read it properly. Sick little puppy...what can I say?
One of the few books on color theory that focuses on fiber arts rather than painting. Really understandable, especially with the great illustrations of how color combinations work in different media (beading, knitting, weaving, etc.)
If you have the least interest in designing in the fiber arts, you should have this book.
This is a terrific reference and primer on color theory. The author uses samples from various fiber arts to illustrate variations in hue and value. A must have for any fiber artist.
