Ashford Book of CardingBought this at the weekend and IMHO it's a great book  It explains what carding is and the tools used. It shows how to use a flick carder, hand carders and a drum carder There's a bit on fibre properties and a section on blending different fibres. Then there's the section on colour and colour blending
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

I`ll be interested to see it, Janice. I`ve not had a look at that particular book. Remember to bring it to Show and Tell next week!
