This elegantly photographed collection of scarves to make and enhance embraces the simple and the sensational. The fabrics specified include those found in notions departments and luxurious upscale fabric stores...and results subtly accent an ensemble or create daring and dramatic fashion statements. Clear, numbered directions for making and decorating various types of scarves are punctuated with profiles of the craftspersons....Those less dexterous who prefer simply to shop for their finishing touches, and those who have successfully created their scarves of choice, will appreciate the final chapter, which offers several pages of photos and diagrams of ideas for typing, draping, wrapping, and even decorating with scarves, allowing anyone to tie one on with style.--Booklist. 128 pages (all in color), 8 1/2 x 10. NEW IN PAPERBACK.

From Library Journal
For most people, scarves are fashion accessories to cover head or neck, but they can function as gift wrappers, belts, hat embellishments, or home-decorating accents. This book on designing, wearing, and decorating with scarves delves into techniques for edging and embellishing purchased scarves as well as for fashioning one-of-a-kind scarves using rubber stamping, ribbon embroidery, stenciling, and dying and painting techniques as well as weaving and knitting scarves. Packham assumes that the reader already knows his or her craft and consequently offers more inspiration than detailed instruction. Recommended for public libraries.
