ONLINE SHOPPING — Books — Beading with Herringbone Stitch

The fifth in a series of single-technique books on the art and craft of beadwork from Beadwork Magazine. Although other books have mentioned the herringbone technique, this is the first book solely dedicated to this strong and versatile stitch, whose flat and sculptural technique gives fabric a snakeskin-like appearance.

Beading with Herringbone Stitch traces the history of the stitch from its Ndebele roots in tribal South Africa, describes the proper supplies needed, and provides an exhaustive techniques section that describes not only the basic stitch, but how to create tubes, curls, circles, and arcs. A gallery of contemporary herringbone beadwork will inspire you to experiment with this unique technique, and you'll find that once you've learned it, the herringbone stitch will mean quick beadwork.
