KAFFE FASSETT (AT THE by Fassett, Kaffe. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780712622363.

For knitting and needlepoint that explode with a riot of colour and pattern, nothing beats these brilliant projects. But, this is more than a simple collection of eye-grabbing costumes and tapestries to make--its a lesson in style by a truly original and fearless designer who doesnt hesitate to go gloriously over the top. And, that makes these brilliant photographs of objects that inspired his work--which range from small Oriental sculptures to Londons stone walls--almost as much fun to look at as the projects are to do. Compare luminous blue-and-green Persian pots with a similarly shaded blue patch crewneck--and then knit the sweater yourself, either using the given colours or choosing other, equally rich tones that suit your own wardrobe.
