Editorial Review Product Description The Pattern and Palette Sourcebook is a desktop library of colors and patterns that addresses the professional's real-world needs in working with harmonies and contrasts. Divided into six unique style sections, the book provides readers with 15 appropriate colors for each section, which are then incorporated into 25 different patterns shown in six or eight color variations each. This enables readers to see the dramatic effect colors have in design and helps them better understand how to use color effectively. The book also demonstrates ways of creating designs that are distinctly unique from one another yet hold together in a group. This book is a must have for designers of all disciplines and experience levels. Customer Reviews (6)

Native American Beadwork & more!
Preserving tribal styles and techniques
It's worth looking at.
beautiful book and what, exactly, is tradtional?louise keyser, a washoe who died in 1925, created a new form of basket in the 1890s that was based on her tradition and her knowledge of other nations' traditions.this is what artists do--take what they know, build on it, and create new forms.after all, indians happily absorbed european beads into their 'traditions.' i design my own knits, embroideries and beadwork.this book offers stunning photos and a good section on traditional color use which together give me a good starting point for my own creations and which is why i rate this book at five stars. note on nomenclature:the indians i have known were not concerned about indian/native american.i object to native american since the indians migrated (IMmigrated) here just as everyone else has, albeit a few thousand years earlier.if i have offended any indian/native american by this use, i apologize. if a european doesn't like it, well....
Native Beadwork from a Native perspective Again, its more about where you're from.Some could say it is 'romantized', as it doesn't go into how much work it actually is to produce hides, that its smelly, you need a lot of guidance & practice, etc. Different tribes use different techniques, & this book is definitely written from a more northeastern tradition, perhaps difficult to appreciate as it is less known outside these communities. (Plains beadwork is usually what the mainstream usually recognizes as 'authentic'.) That said, one probably needs a little background to get the most from this book. I do wish there was more discussion on color use and Great Lakes pattern development, but these are also skills which are best honed by doing. I enjoyed this book, which does pack a lot of information into relatively little space. The construction techniques are excellent! ... Read more |

Editorial Review Product Description Plain knitted shawls often look like Granny made them. Plain bead jewelry doesn’t keep a crafter warm on a cool evening. But when two great crafts—knitting and beading—are combined, the results are fabulous! Large or small, faceted or polished, subtle or vibrant, all kinds of beads can be worked into knitted designs to add color, texture, sophistication, and sparkle. The Knit with Beads series introduces all the materials and supplies needed for knitting with beads, along with simple illustrated instructions for a range of techniques, including bead embroidery and beaded fringe, beaded knitting, slipstitch beading, stranded beading, hook beading, and bead knitting. Stunning Shawls and Wraps offers fifteen exciting patterns, with styles ranging from classic to funky, from dressy to casual. These wraps are easy enough for beginners, with plenty of hand-holding and clear explanations, yet sophisticated enough for anyone headed for the office, dashing to a weekend brunch, or stepping out for a night on the town.
