waffle weave |
At our 2nd monday weavers group Denise brought 3 of the 4 Swatch books by Malin Selander. These caused quite a stir, and she found them at a second hand store for a little bit of nothing. What a treasure!
I found in my” books for sale at fiber shows” stash a copy of Swedish Swatches by Malin Selander. This is a photographic compilation of most of the samples in all four books. I am looking at it with different eyes after having seen the actual samples. It made such a difference to see and touch these in person and of course being able to see how different the back of the fabric was. This was a lady not afraid of color ,and although some of the glitzy metallic 60’s yarns made me cringe a bit, her design ascetic is timeless. Bravo!
