Hardcover. White & illus. glossy boards, 84 pp., BW and color illus. "Developed from the linear principles involved in curve stitching, a new contemporary art form has emerged known as symmography or thread design. Symmography, as a combination of mathematical principles and artistic design, is a unique craft or art form. The fundamental principle of symmography is the connection of two points with a straight line. Designs are created by the grouping and overlapping of multiple points and lines. The linear quality of symmography can be adapted to two- and three-dimensional designs, to a variety of media, a well as to various age groups and abilities." (intro) A wide variety of designs are depicted here, for inspiration. G (Some scuffs to covers; small marks inside front cover, otherwise generally clean.).
