Publisher Description

This visual guide to more than 200 breeds and the fibres they produce for knitting, spinning, and weaving is the ultimate browsing book for crafters and animal raisers. It offers an unusual combination of information on the characteristics of each fibre-producing breed, as well as the unique qualities of each fibre, its history, and its potential uses. It covers almost every sheep breed in the world - the longwool breeds of the United Kingdom, the Tasmanian merino, the Navajo churro, the northern European Faroese and dozens and dozens more. It also includes goats (mohair and cashmere of course); camelids, such as alpacas, llamas, and vicunas; bison; horses; musk oxen; rabbits; and, even dogs. Readers will find everything they want to know about each animal and its fibre, including the fibre's colour, density, strength, and staple length, and recommendations for processing and using it. They'll also find expert information on breed conservation and heritage breed propagation; easy-to-use charts and boxes for quick reference; and, a comprehensive resource section.

Back Cover

As the Prince of Wales turned fifty at the end of 1998, the media focused on the publication of 'Charles: Victim or Villain?', Penny Junor's controversial biography of the heir to England's throne. Directing the spotlight onto the three peopl in the Royal marriage, this book has turned popular understanding on it's head. But although Junor's unique insight into these endlessly intriguing relationships caused fierce speculation, even outrage, nothing has been denied, nobody has disputed that this is the true portrait of a marriage. Sourced from those closest to the Prince, the Princess and Camilla some of whom have never spoken before Penny Junor explodes and explains the popular myths. The result is a provocative new portrait of the man who will be King. The snappiest book to appear in the wake of last year's orgy of excitementEVENING STANDARD A fair-minded rejoinder to Andrew Morton's credulous Diana bookGUARDIAN

Review Quote

Two experts, one a farmer and livestock guru, the other a fiber magazine editor, join brains to produce this resource for yarn crafters. Far from drab and dreary, Robson and Ekarius enliven the pictures and descriptions of about 200 breeds of sheep, inserting critical information and fun facts. Well written and researched, a reference for all ages. Starred review-- Craftzine
