Bought this at the weekend and IMHO it's a great book Very Happy It explains what carding is and the tools used. It shows how to use a flick carder, hand carders and a drum carder Very Happy There's a bit on fibre properties and a section on blending different fibres. Then there's the section on colour and colour blending Very Happy
Finally there are four projects, self striping socks, merino mittens, a gull-wing shawl and a merino and silk scarf.
I would say, for me, this is definately a good buy Very Happy
