Prain (Yarn Bombing: The Art of Crochet and Knit Graffiti) introduces us to a whole new world of artistic self-expression as she interviews 32 innovative textile artists whose work incorporates storytelling. Rosalind Wyatt enlivens history when she embroiders text onto vintage clothing; Tracy Widdess knits grotesque yet whimsical monster masks. The collection of artist profiles, projects, and prompts for creative thinking is organized by narrative form: fiction, poetry, memories, protest and social activism, even comedy. The examples illustrate Prain's contention that textile art, the "invisible sister of the art world," is particularly well suited for telling stories. She provides guides for eight projects requiring novice skills with embroidery, machine sewing, or knitting. Open-ended questions serve as additional fuel for readers who want to use these ideas in their own creative work. Crafters expecting a conventional step-by-step DIY instruction book will not find it here. VERDICT Prain's wide-ranging selection of projects and artists brings deserved attention to textile artists whose work--sometimes powerfully simple but often complex and multivalent--will surely intrigue and inspire.--Nancy B. Turner, Temple Univ. Lib., Philadelphia
