The luminous poems in Karen McPherson's SKEIN OF LIGHT pull and gather toward horizons of reflection. In language that repeatedly reveals what it can and cannot do, the poet maps landscapes of memory where sharp-edged questions disturb the stillness. The personal and human are deftly threaded through a natural world made legible in flights of birds, bending grasses, rock striations. And through this open work, the reader steps into a place both familiar and unknown. "'In everything / there is an underside, an other hand, / something to which we are not listening, ' writes Karen McPherson and whether the poet is writing of dreamscape or landscape, McPherson's gorgeous meditative poems dwell in the shifting meanings of that listening. From every angle, present or past, we see how wonderfully tricky yet compelling seeing or understanding or representing anything is, how transient words are when it comes to translating the momentary they try to name. Though, of course, in the joy of that 'perpetual translation, ' McPherson would have it no other way, and as her readers, we, too, can be grateful for the endlessly exquisite possibilities these poems embody." Maxine Scates "Even in the play or pique of questions, McPherson's fierce eye has a relentless focus on the resonant image, her ear on the alluring rhyme. Meanwhile, beneath these poems a clock ticks like a metronome to guide us toward a kind of balance where we might, momentarily, rest and draw strength. Powerful work." John C. Morrison"

And what could be better than a handmade crochet toy. The crochet projects in this collection all have an interactive and educational element for play and this helps toddlers to meet important developmental milestones in a fun way. Author, Svetlana Golova, has designed a range of toys which can be played with in several different ways to enable children to develop a wide range of skills. Some of the toys feature different materials that make a noise in order to enhance the interactice experience and there are instructions for which materials to use. The Monkey Shape Sorter, Elephant Stacking Toy, and Giraffe Threading Toy— along with other toys in this pattern book—will entertain babies and young children for a number of years and then, as the child grows older, they will become treasured members of a soft toy collection. Other toys, including the quiet books and the Farmyard Activity Cube will appeal to adults and children alike who will enjoy playing and reading them together and making up their own stories. The toys have been designed around popular themes such as farm animals; sea life; dinosaurs and wild animals and all of them have an interactive element. Projects include shape sorters; stacking toys; an activity cube; threading toys, rattles and quiet books. All of the patterns are written in US crochet terminology, and range in difficulty and there are ability ratings so you can build your skills by starting with the simpler projects. The patterns use basic crochet stitches so there are no complicated new stitches or techniques to learn, and the construction of the toys is explained with step-by-step instructions and photography. All of the key crochet techniques are explained in the General Techniques section.

Book excerpt: From the author of The Loosening Skin and The Beauty, Aliya Whiteley, Skein Island is a powerful and disturbing look at the roles we play, and how they form and divide us. This new edition features a brand new novelette set in the same world as Skein Island. Skein Island, a private refuge twelve miles off the coast of Devon, lies in turbulent waters. Few receive the invitation to stay for one week, free of charge. If you are chosen, you must pay for your stay with a story from your past; a Declaration for the Island's vast library. What happens to your Declaration after you leave the island is none of your concern. From the monsters of Ancient Greece to the atrocities of World War II, from heroes to villains with their seers and sidekicks by their sides, Skein Island looks through the roles we play, and how they form and divide us. Powerful and disturbing, it is a story over which the characters will fight for control. Until they realise the true enemy is the story itself.

Download or read book One More Skein written by Leigh Radford and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2011-09-13 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author of AlterKnits Felt shows knitters how to turn a little yarn into fun projects and gifts—including baby clothes, bags, and household items. “Two needles and one (or one more) skein of yarn—the possibilities never cease to amaze me,” writes Leigh Radford in the introduction to her new book. Radford’s fascination with the creative potential of these raw materials is evident throughout One More Skein, where she melds the alternative approach to knitting and felting she introduced in AlterKnits and AlterKnits Felt with the magic she worked with a single skein of yarn in the bestselling One Skein. One More Skein features 30 diverse projects that can be completed with one or two average-sized skeins of yarn or multiple bits of leftover yarn. Projects include an earflap hat sized for the whole family; fingerless mitts; sweaters, britches, and capelets for baby; hemp jewelry embellished with jump ring “beads”; a felted, pleated sleeve to dress up a vase; and a multicolored blanket worked from assorted stash yarn. All of them are quick and relatively easy to make, without sacrificing beauty or ingenuity.

Book excerpt: When it comes to making crochet blankets, corner-to-corner is quickly becoming our new favorite. And really, what’s not to love? Worked in a solid color, it makes a deeply textured fabric. But work it in multiple colors, and the sky’s the limit. Seriously — you can work any grid-based color chart with the corner-to-corner technique. Corner-to-corner crochet (often just called C2C crochet) is a terrific technique to add to your wheelhouse. With C2C crochet, you begin in the corner of a crochet project, typically a crochet blanket or afghan square, and work towards the other corner in a way that produces a finished project that looks like a textured, layered version of the classic granny square. It is a unique technique with an original look but it builds upon basic crochet skills, which makes it is surprisingly easy to learn. This guide shows you how to learn corner to corner crochet and showcases some of the best C2C crochet patterns for practicing the technique. In this book “CORNER TO CORNER CROCHET”, I will be teaching you everything that is needed to become an expert when it comes to c2c crochet patterns. The materials, supplies, tools and techniques have been explained in details in this guide that even a beginner can assimilate easily. I have also added some C2C project patterns so you could produce projects like; scarf, throws, crochet dear afghan, C2C heart, C2C Afghan zodiacs, C2cC motifs blanket and so much more.
