“The book reveals rural crafts whose presence amongst us we could scarcely have guessed. It also introduces us to randing and slewing, to hackling and couching, and to leggetts, riddles, hoops and batts, as the language not of a lost tradition but of crafts that continue to live and thrive. Kate Lynch’s beautifully-illustrated book can inform and delight us in many different ways. It deserves to be widely enjoyed.”
