Book Reviews of the Shibori Knits: The Art of Exquisite Felted KnitsCustomer Review: Disappointed. Still debating... Summary: 2 StarsI just purchased this book because I love felting and I love the concepts of shibori art. There is a fair bit of information about the techniques (in fact, the book is noticeably text-heavy), and that is interesting and informative, but ultimately I was disappointed in what it book offers in terms of projects. I feel the patterns are a bit clumsy and the colours are mostly garish. There aren't nearly enough photographs of fibers and no step-by-step images of the techniques she uses. The book itself is quite large to handle and the font used throughout the book is delicate and small, making it hard to read when you're working on complicated patterns.
I appreciate that the author is a fiber artist and I can see where the techniques lend themselves to creativity and expression. But the application of them here into more everyday or practical uses is generally a disappointment and I'm still debating whether to keep the book or return it. Having purchased the more expensive hard cover version, I can't help feeling I would have rather spent the money on some exquisite yarn. The only thing holding me back is that I can't seem to find a really good book on shibori techniques and practical patterns... perhaps I should hold onto this one until the right one comes along.
