The indie movement has reached the world of crafts, where traditional techniques such as knitting, mosaic, embroidery, metalwork, sewing, and collage are being used in brave new ways. With an emphasis on recycling, improvising, and making things from scratch, AlternaCrafts offers more than 20 projects that give this newest generation of crafters the skills they need for self-expression. Whether you want to turn your beat-up T-shirts into a shaggy rug, an old sweater into a cozy hat, yesterday's newspaper into a bouquet of flowers, or jeans into a new skirt or bag, this exciting book tells you how to make the transformations with a minimal amount of money and no experience whatsoever. Boldly designed to attract teenagers and 20-somethings, this book will also appeal to older crafters seeking newfangled twists. Extensively illustrated in color.
