Description
New York: Grosset & Dunlap, 1977. pp: xviii, 509. 351 bi-coloured diagrams of stitches, 175 photographs of which 25 are in colour and some are two-page foldouts. Bibliography, index. Being only a mere male and, as such, barely able to thread a needle; one whose idea of darning a sock being to use a purse-string suture, then this book is way beyond my expertise and I can but rely on the blurbs from the dust jacket to tell me what a wonderful reference book it is.. ISBN: 0448120348. Later Printing.. Cloth. Near Fine/Near Fine. Illus. by Maggie Lane ( Diagrams ). 4to. Art, Craft, Needlepoint..
dust jacket : A protective and often decorative wrapper, usually made of paper which wraps around the binding of a book.
4to : Or quarto. A term used generally to describe the approximate size of a book, a book that is about 10" to 12" tall and roughly squarish in shape. The term is based on the size of paper traditionally used by book printers which has been folded and cut into 16 pages.
Cloth : Generally refers to a hardcover with cloth covering the outside of the book covers.
