Gives craft lovers a new twist for extra enjoyment in knitting, crocheting, and weaving: make and use gorgeous paper yarn
Teaches crafters how to make and use a gorgeous material for extra enjoyment in knitting, crocheting, and weaving: paper yarn.



Explore Japanese paper yarn to add new dimensions to your favorite fiber crafts like knitting, crocheting, macrame, weaving, or mixed media. Textile artist Andra F. Stanton focuses you on a fresh perspective: crafting with paper yarn instead of expected yarns of wool or cotton.



Beginning with its deep roots in Japan, learn about paper yarn's rich versatility. With simple instructions, make your own paper yarn from a sheet of kozo paper. Try 12 inspiring projects, from beginner-friendly pulped paper weaving to a more-experienced-level knitted scarf. Then you're ready to use paper yarn to take your own favorite crafts in new directions.



Throughout, enjoy photos of works by dozens of the contemporary artists who have brought paper yarn to the West's galleries and museums of the 21st century.



Whatever your crafting level, this is an accessible resource, blending history, instructions, and artistic inspiration. Elevate your making with the tranquility of a traditional process that is perfect for mindful crafting.

Textile artist Andra F. Stanton's work is exhibited in galleries throughout the United States, and her writing on the artistry, emotional benefits, and history of fiber crafts has inspired many makers. A retired psychotherapist, she is also the author of Dimensional Cloth: Sculpture by Contemporary Textile Artists and How Art Heals. Meher McArthur is an Asian art historian specializing in Japanese art. She is the art and cultural director for Japan House in Los Angeles.
