Celtic Woodcraft: Authentic Projects for Woodworkers
Celtic knot work and other designs of early Ireland are immensely popular, so it's about time that someone created a woodworking title featuring these powerful images. Bennett, a self-taught woodworker who hopes to encourage beginners, here offers a collection of 20 projects appropriate for woodworkers of every skill level. This reviewer has not been so excited about a new project book in years; the designs are beautiful and so diverse that they should appeal to nearly everyone.
This book offers a variety of projects for advanced beginning knitters and spinners (or fans of handspun yarns). Packed with spinning knowledge and over 25 adorable projects, crafters can create unique gifts and wearables. This book includes designs that make the most of a few hundred yards of handspun. Patterns include hats, mittens, scarves, socks, bags, children's items, wraps, home decor options. This book discusses spinning a wide variety of fibers with a certain project in mind and knitting with handspun. In addition to basic yarn information (yards per pound, gauge, wraps per inch), each project includes a sidebar on the special techniques used to create each yarn.
A good business case is so much more than simply the means to justify a decision. A well-written and well-researched business case will secure funding; make sure any project stays on the right side of regulation; mobilize support for the cause; and provide the platform for managing the project and the benchmark against which to measure progress. Ian Gambles' ""Making the Business Case"" shows you how to make sense of the task at hand, develop a strategy, articulate your options, define the benefits, establish the costs, identify the risks and make a compelling case.
