The Woolcraft Book Spinning Dyeing Weaving by Constance Jackson and Judith Plowman is a vintage 1980 hardback bible for fibre lovers. Clear illustrated steps walk spinners, dyers and weavers through every stage from fleece to finished cloth.
This copy carries a neat previous-owner inscription on the front endpaper and opens to a pair of foxed prelims; the rest of the pages are bright, crisp and free of dog-ears. A narrow surface tear at the page edge is the only other blemish, while the binding remains satisfyingly tight.
Ideal for young adults, adults or anyone building a craft library, the book distils decades of know-how into one friendly volume. It sits naturally alongside other Art & Culture, Fashion or Lifestyle titles and makes a thoughtful gift for the maker in your life.
