SeptemberOctober 2022

 
 
On the Cover:
Duncan Rug by Pat Dodge. For more about this rug, see page 18.

Speaking of tradition: this issue features a host of projects that exemplify the wide-ranging styles and techniques, as well as the top-tier contributors, we’ve made the cornerstone of the magazine. Cute and clever Halloween nesting dolls and a moody pumpkin moon set the stage for the spooky season. Innovative “Primilistic” techniques, artful Duncan rugs, and graffiti-inspired designs expand your horizons. We also travel from New Mexico to the Canadian coast in search of local inspiration.
