Excellent book

(...) This is not a book for a beginner; she doesn't focus extensively on the "basics" - looping, bending, and wrapping wire, although she does give some instruction on how to do these things. For that, I would buy "All Wired Up" by Mark Lareau. But there are some very unique designs in this book, that I feel make it worth adding to your library, if you're a wire wrapper and already have some experience. I have been making one of her wire snowflakes every year now, and give them out as Xmas presents. (picture here at: http://webpages.charter.net/garyb444/Snowflake%20008.jpg). She also does not give illustrations for every single step of the projects, but I found that the instructions were detailed enough for me to complete the projects, based on previous wire wrapping experience and ordinary common sense. A good book to buy, if you want to expand your repertoire of designs and try something new.
