About this product

Product Information

We all love color-its boundless array of hues dazzles our eyes, expresses our moods, and enriches our very lives. Thanks to Deb Menz, master teacher and author of the highly respected book Color in Spinning (Interweave Press, 1998), you can now explore colors with confidence in whatever craft medium you call your favorite. This is the first book to bring the principles of color theory down to a practical level and apply them to knitting, spinning, weaving, surface design (including stenciling and rubber stamping), hand- and machine-embroidery, beadwork, quilting, and paper collage. Basic color concepts are presented in sections on color description, values, contrasting and complementary colors, warm and cool colors, undertones, using color relationships, and much more. But the real treat is seeing a dynamic palette of color harmonies worked up in each medium! This approach is invaluable for mixed-media artists or those who simply dabble in more than one craft. Also included is a pull-out color wheel and a very handy section of hue cards in perforated format that are easy to remove and use for planning, matching, and shopping for supplies. If understanding color is the bridge to creative expression, how did we ever live without this book?

  • Color Works by Deb Menz

    If you are in textiles or work with fiber of any kind this is a great reference book. I spin wool and starting to do color blending of fibers for spinning. The color wheel with overlays and the color charts at the end of the book are excellent tools in playing with color and finding what colors you want. The color wheel and charts do not cover the whole color spectrum but it gives you a good idea in blending colors. Deb is very knowledgeable and explains well techniques of color blending and the many possiblities that can be reached through color blending. Her video is also excellent. JL

  • The clear charts and colors inspire

    I m color crazy, I use almost anything in my quilting. This book fully explains color interaction. I enjoyed seeing why I love some colors together as not so excited about others in quilting I feel you do need to throw some unfriendly color to make a quilt sparkle. This book is spiral bound which is necessary for a book you usea lot. The illustrations are helpful with pure colors that is a good source of inspiration.

  • Color Works

    Very informative about using color in yarn arts.
